Wellness Survey for Community Members

Western Wayne School District recognizes that student wellness and proper nutrition are related to students’ physical well-being, growth, development, and readiness to learn. We believe in a school environment that promotes student wellness, proper nutrition, nutrition education and promotion, and regular physical activity as part of the total learning experience. Federal regulations require local education agencies (LEAs) participating in the National School Lunch Program to complete an assessment of their local school wellness policy at least once every three years and make the results available to the public. 

Community members are encouraged to complete a wellness survey at https://forms.gle/6pTYNrdTNQ9t2JeN6. The survey closes on June 30, 2024.

If a student or district employee did not receive the Wellness Survey link, please email Dr. Cynthia LaRosa at clarosa@westernwayne.org.

Fourth Annual Cat Pack Games held at Sharkey Rosetti Stadium

May 21 marked the Fourth Annual Cat Pack Games at Sharkey Rosetti Stadium. Student “CAThletes” from EverGreen, RDW, and both the Middle and High Schools participated in a day filled with running, jumping, throwing, and play! Thank you to every faculty and staff member and student volunteer who dedicated their time and energy to ensure this event was a success!

Kickoff Time for Varsity Football Game CHANGED

Please be advised that the kickoff time for the varsity football game between Lakeland and Western Wayne scheduled for this Friday, October 20, 2023, has been changed to 4 PM. The reason for this change is a Lackawanna Interscholastic Athletic Association (LIAA) league-wide shortage of PIAA football officials. The shortage of officials forced the LIAA to change kickoff times and/or dates to ensure that all games scheduled would be fully staffed with officials. We understand the logistical difficulty for parents and community members resulting from this change, but we ask for your patience and understanding.

School Breakfast Program Announcement

As of October 1, 2022 and through the end of the 2022 – 2023 school year, schools participating in the School Breakfast Program will be able to serve students a school breakfast at no charge as per the plan announced back on September 9, 2022 by Governor Wolf.

This change only applies to the School Breakfast Program in the 2022 – 2023 school year and does not affect a student’s eligibility status for lunch (free, reduced, and paid respectively).

Any family who is experiencing economic hardships and would like to apply for the free/reduced school lunch program, please contact the Food Service Office at (570) 937-3085.
