A brief statement from WSD Superintendent, Mr. Scott West:
'Dear Warden families,
Our district’s main priority is to support student learning outcomes by fostering a safe, welcoming, and supportive environment for all students and families. We believe that safety and belonging are foundational to carrying out the district’s Vision: Empowering, Preparing, and Motivating each Student for Life-long Success. Schools should be places of growth and community, and we are dedicated to continuing our duty of protecting the well-being of every student who enters Warden School District.
We are aware that the federal government has removed the “protected areas” designation, which previously limited immigration enforcement actions on school grounds. The district’s Strategic Plan commitments remain the same. The district is committed to creating an emotionally and physically safe learning environment and keeping students at the heart of our work. Therefore, a student’s background, condition, and circumstance should not predict their progress and success. We will continue to closely monitor changes at the federal level, if at all. In fact, this week we received guidance from the Washington State Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction, which we intend to follow.
Aligned with RCW 43.10.310, limiting school involvement in immigration enforcement, which ensures that schools remain safe and inclusive spaces for all students, regardless of immigration status. School staff cannot assist or facilitate immigration enforcement unless legally required, such as when presented with a valid judicial warrant. Additionally, these policies restrict the sharing of student information or allowing interviews by immigration authorities without proper legal authorization.
As we carefully review how these federal changes impact our schools, our priority is to protect students’ privacy while complying with federal, state, and local laws. We will communicate openly with our community if new developments occur. Families with questions or concerns are encouraged to contact their child’s school or the district office.
Sincerely,
Scott West, Superintendent
Warden School District'
On December 12, 2024, Warden School District Board of Directors adopted a change to district policy 3420 – Anaphylaxis Prevention and Response. The change will allow the school district to maintain an undesignated supply of epinephrine auto injectors or nasal spray in the event of an anaphylactic medical emergency. Even with the district’s best efforts, staff and parents/guardians need to be aware that it is not possible to achieve a completely allergen-free environment. However, the district will take reasonable precautions to reduce the risk of exposure to allergens for students with a history of anaphylaxis. This change in district policy will ensure that the school nurse or designated trained school personnel have access to the school supply of epinephrine to respond to an anaphylactic emergency, if the student’s supply is not immediately available. The parent/guardian of a student with a life-threatening allergy are still responsible for providing the school with appropriate medication and treatment orders pursuant to RCW 28A.210.320.

Today, the District was notified of a student testing positive for Pertussis, Whooping Cough. The Grant County Health District requires notification to families of students who may have been exposed. As our entire District is on one campus, we are choosing to notify all families. Notifications will be delivered to you that must be sent home with students today but may also be read here: English or Español
The District Safety Committee is pleased to announce the implementation of a new parking plan for students, staff, and visitors. In the coming days, maintenance crews will be painting parking stalls to designate specific areas. Effective Monday, October 21, students are required to park in their assigned spots during school hours, excluding extra-curricular events. Staff will have designated parking areas available.
Details of the Parking Plan:
- Students: Parking is allocated on the north side of the secondary gym. Parking passes will be issued to licensed and insured drivers.
- Visitors: Designated parking spots are available near the main entrances to ensure a welcoming experience.
- Staff: Designated parking areas near various facility entrances will be available to all staff members.
A map outlining the new parking areas will be provided shortly. We extend our sincere gratitude to the District Safety Committee for their diligent efforts in planning and implementing this new system.
