Budget vote and trustee election is Tuesday, May 11.
@CornwellAveES is learning it up this morning regardless of the weather outside. They are producing the mental sweat necessary to grow their brains! #RamResolve
We are happy to report that those K-6 students who have chosen to return full time will begin on Monday. There will be more details to come and a ConnectEd will be delivered by each building. @WHChestnut @CornwellAveES @WHGWashington #RamResolve

K-6 Return to School
The district will be moving towards a return to school. We are working with transportation, facilities, food service, etc. to ensure a smooth transition. We send a start date after we have confirmed the logistics. We will use this as a case study for September.
Our current thinking is that we will all be returning in September unless otherwise directed by the Governor.
The secondary plant, grades 7-12, will remain for the balance of the year. We will be requesting information from parents, K-6, of their intent for the remainder of the year. There will be no further changes. As a reminder, there are three options which are full in, hybrid, or fully remote.
Please complete the survey that can be found below or under each schools main page. It is due Friday.

We’ve been advised by the Nassau County Police Department that it is safe to lift the district’s lockout. We are currently beginning dismissal procedures at all buildings. We ask for your continued patience as we work to dismiss students in a safe manner.
Thank you again for your continued cooperation and understanding throughout the day.
Please be advised that the district is currently still in a lockout. If the lockout isn’t lifted by dismissal, buses will not be able to run as usual. Please remain patient as this is an ongoing and active situation. As always, the safety of our students and staff is our top priority. Thank you for your continued cooperation and the district will provide updates as they become available.
Thank you for your assistance.
Good morning. This is a message from the West Hempstead School District. We were informed by the police that there is activity in the area. We are presently in a lock out and we'll inform you when it is over. Please do not come to the buildings. Everyone is safe. Thank you.

On April 9, 2021, the New York State Department of Health issued updated guidance regarding in-person instruction for school districts (the “Guidance”). Pursuant to the Guidance, prior to the District making any changes to reduce physical distancing to less than six feet between students during academic instruction, decisions must be made with community input.
The Guidance permits Districts to reduce physical distancing requirements to a minimum of three feet between students in classroom settings, subject to adherence to certain mitigation measures. In order for the District to accommodate such reduction in physical distancing in classrooms, the District would be required to amend its Reopening Plan. Thus, we request input regarding your child’s method of learning in the event physical distancing in classrooms is reduced to three feet for the remainder of the 2020-21 school year.
In the next day or two you will receive access to a form (either on-line or by mail depending on building), to notify us of your decision regarding your child’s method of learning for the remainder of the 2020-21 school year in the event physical distancing requirements are reduced and the District’s Reopening Plan is amended.
Thank you
