Waubun-Ogema-White Earth Schools

I would like to recognize Mason Drinkwine for his exceptional positive attitude. Mason comes to school each day with a smile on his face and greets everyone with a bright, "Hello". Mason is an extremely hard worker and strives to do better each and every day. Thank you Mason for being a great caring and positive role model for your peers! You are a joy to have in the classroom! Ms. Ueke 4th Grade

Clara is a great young lady who works very hard. She is always eager to learn something new and is not afraid to ask questions. She is kind to her classmates and contributes to a wonderful learning environment both in the distance learning format and the hybrid in school format. It's my honor to nominate Clara Heisler as the November student of the month in Mr. Qual's class.

Dear Families, Students, and Staff, We were notified by the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) of a lab confirmed case of COVID-19 (novel coronavirus) in a member of the Waubun school community with an exposure date of November 2, 2020. For privacy reasons, we cannot share details about the status of the person. At this time, they have been advised to stay home and away from other people (isolate). We have worked with the MDH to identify those who had close contact with the case, and have communicated with them individually. The risk of exposure for other individuals present in the building on that date is no greater than the risk of contracting the virus in the general community. If you were not identified to have close contact with the positive case you should still monitor for symptoms of illness, but do not need to stay home unless symptoms develop. If symptoms develop, stay home and consult with your physician to determine if medical evaluation is needed. We are working closely with MDH to monitor the situation. If you have questions, contact Carolyn Cossette, School Nurse or Lisa Weber, Superintendent at 218-473-6171. Thank you for helping to keep our school community safe. COVID-19 Resources If You Are Sick: COVID-19 (www.health.state.mn.us/diseases/coronavirus/sick.html) Coronavirus (COVID-19) (www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/index.html) Sincerely, Lisa Weber, Superintendent Waubun-Ogema-White Earth Schools
