Since 2020, the operation of school board meetings in Washington has been impacted by the20-28 series of the Governor’s Emergency Proclamations. Proclamation 20-28.14 required that meetings subject to the Open Public Meetings Act (OPMA) have a remote option for participation and attendance. On April 29, 2022, Governor Inslee terminated and rescinded Proclamation 20-28.14, with the termination effective 12:01 AM on June 1, 2022.
As a result of that termination, the Warden School District will be reverting back to our policy prior to the pandemic of providing the opportunity for public comment at the physical location of the meeting. The public is welcome to attend the Warden School Board meetings. We will not be continuing to provide a remote session of the board meeting available live online. We thank you for your continued support of our school district.

Warden families, please join us in welcoming Mr. Alan Martinez to the Warden School District (WSD) as the Director of Transportation. Mr. Martinez comes to WSD from Moses Lake Industries, where he served as a Shipping Coordinator, ensuring compliance with Department of Transportation regulations. Many may recognize Mr. Martinez as a class of 2007 alumni, having called Warden home for the majority of his life. Nothing could keep Mr. Martinez from Warden for long though and for years now has been sharing his passion for Warden wrestling by helping to coach future Cougar champions. You can see Mr. Martinez’ chest puff up with a bit of pride at the prospect of one day coaching his own little ones but also has an equal amount of pride in them walking the same roads to school that he did. As with many here in Warden, Mr. Martinez’ sense of Cougar pride is true blue.
You would have a hard time finding someone who loves this town more than I do, and it all started here at the Warden School District. Meeting lifelong best friends, heart to heart conversations on long bus rides, and building my home on the same road that I once walked to school myself. I loved my experience in the Warden School District as a student and hope to do my part to make sure every kid in this community gets the same experience. I plan to treat every field trip, every sporting event, and every trip to and from school like my kids are the ones being transported. With safety as our number one focus and with experiences they will remember long down the road.

Dear Warden Families,
As many may have heard or seen in the media, a tragedy occurred in an elementary school in Texas yesterday. We recognize this tragedy may hit close to home as the community this happened in is a small community and in some ways, is not so different from our beloved Warden. Our hearts go out to the families and community of Uvalde, Texas.
The safety of our students and staff is our number one priority. We take measures to prevent a tragedy like this from happening, including:
-
Our schools practice lockdown drills on a regular basis.
-
We take all threats seriously, investigate and take appropriate precautions.
-
New and updated security doors, locks, and cameras installed district wide along with new fencing.
Students may express or exhibit fear about their safety in the coming days. If you sense that a student needs support, please alert your school counselor or other trusted staff member. Here are some resources to help you support your students.
Resources for Elementary
Resources for Secondary
We recognize this event may be especially traumatizing for students and school-based staff. It is important that each of us pay attention to our own wellness. We also must pull together as a school community to support one another. As a district, we will continue to review our safety measures to ensure that we are doing all we can for the safety of our students and staff.
Sincerely,
Scott West, Superintendent
Warden School District
This meeting will be held in the High School Library at 7pm with attendees in excess of capacity able to join the meeting, virtually from the Warden Middle School Commons.

Questions, comments, and concerns for the District.
Earlier this week, an application for summer school was sent home with many of the K-8 students. The applications for WES were bright yellow and easy to spot! In the event the applications didn't make it home, a copy may downloaded. The deadline to return applications is June 6. While it does say K-8, high schoolers are welcome to attend as well. Just contact the WHS principal or counselor. We look forward to seeing everyone who attends!
Earlier today the Washington State Department of Health published a public service announcement regarding available resources in the event your family has been impacted by the nationwide infant formula shortage. The shortage has been affecting families across the nation but more specifically, families here in Warden. The full press release containing links to resources may be found at the Department of Health's website.
