WCPS families, as you gear up for Back to School shopping, we want you to be aware of an important change. iPads across the school system have been refreshed to a newer model and are ready to go for students' return this September. The new model now requires headphones and earbuds to be USB-C compatible, so be sure to check that compatibility when purchasing from your child's school supply list. All lists have been updated to reflect this compatibility; view them online at https://tinyurl.com/WCPSSupplyList. #WeAreWorcester

The Judy Center Early Learning Hub will be cancelling our Block Party scheduled for Wednesday. Please see the attached flyer for details.

Our hearts are full as we say a bittersweet goodbye to our incredible BES custodians, Mr. Larry Lewis and Mrs. Glenda Holden who are retiring at the end of this school year! 🎉 For years, they've been the quiet heroes behind the scenes, ensuring our school was always a clean, safe, and welcoming place for our students and staff. From sparkling hallways to tidy classrooms, their dedication and hard work made a real difference every single day. They didn't just clean; they cared. They were often the first smiling faces we saw in the morning and the last to leave, always going above and beyond with a kind word or a helping hand. We'll miss their warm presence, their tireless efforts, and the genuine care they poured into our school community. We wish them a retirement filled with joy, relaxation, and all the happiness they so richly deserve! Thank you for everything! ❤️
