Dear WSSA Parents a
nd
Students,
We greatly appreciate everyone's hand
l
ing of the sweeping changes that have come over us beginning in
mid
-
March. We went into Spri
n
g Break w
it
h the full
in
te
n
tion of return
in
g and resuming the
traditional
schoo
l
year. Obviously,
t
hat
did not
happen fo
r
Wi
n
s
ton
or for other schoo
ls
thro
u
gho
u
t the
U
nited
States.
To
our senio
r
s a
nd
their parents, this w
i
ll
definitely be
something
that
you, alo
n
g with the
r
est of
the
Wi
n
ston
community,
will always
remember.
To
m
i
ss out on
th
e
i
mporta
n
t
traditions
that seniors
partake
in
i
s very difficu
l
t. D
r
. Karulak and
h
is staff are planning a virtua
l
graduation
t
hat will be as
much
like a
traditional
Winsto
n
grad
u
atio
n
as possible witho
u
t, of course, actually
being physically
together.
As the Board of
T
ru
s
tees of
The Wi
n
ston Sc
h
ool Sa
n
A
n
tonio
,
we want you
to know
that we rema
in
engaged with t
h
e business of t
h
e schoo
l.
We w
i
ll con
t
inue
to
wor
k
with Dr. Karulak and the rest of the faculty
and
staff to
monitor
and
plan
for what
may
l
i
e ahead. With th
i
s sa
id
,
we carry the optimistic
belief
that we w
i
ll return to school in
t
he fall. If we do indeed
r
eturn, we will adhe
r
e
to
safe
practices
to
ensure
everyo
n
e stays healthy. Of course, we
are
also
preparing for the possibility
of con
t
inued
di
s
tance
learning in
t
he event that the federal,
state,
and
l
ocal government officials extend
sc
h
ool closures into
t
he fall. Howeve
r
,
we hope this
does
n
ot happen.
We feel the
school
has
done a
very good
j
ob
w
it
h
di
stance
l
earn
in
g, espec
i
ally with hav
in
g to start
it
so abrupt
l
y.
This
undertaki
n
g has
s
teadily
improved
as
t
im
e has

Thank
yo
