The Waverly Grade School Water Line will be repaired today. Plan to attend classes tomorrow on a normal schedule. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Waverly Grade School is closed today Monday September 13th due to the water being off at the Grade School building. Please check social media today for further information.

If you have any questions regarding quarantine, COVID antigen testing, close contacts, etc. please contact the building offices or building administration. Classroom teachers may not have the most recently updated information, as it can change quickly.

"Just wanted to share with you that USD 243 has trained personnel and tests/ppe in place to conduct rapid antigen testing. If we have individuals deemed as close contacts who are symptom free with no other Covid 19 positive people in their home or living environment, we may test them daily as an optional alternative to quarantine. While in attendance individuals must test negative daily, these individuals must wear a mask and maintain 6 feet distance from any other person while at school. This process is not a substitute for medical care by a licensed physician and the school must receive parent permission prior to testing. People with one or more symptoms should not attend school. People in contact with other ill people within their home or living environment should not attend school." Sincerely, -- Corey Reese, Superintendent Lebo Waverly USD 243
