Victoria West High School

**** 𝐖𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐖𝐚𝐭𝐜𝐡 𝐔𝐩𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐞 **** 🌡️ The safety of our students and staff is our highest priority, and Victoria ISD is actively monitoring the weather forecast and receiving daily updates from the Office of Emergency Management/National Weather Service. The most recent update we received today does not indicate a need to change the regular school day schedule this week. We recognize the forecast can change, and we will continue to monitor the ongoing weather updates and provide additional information if the forecast indicates the need to alter our regular schedule. Due to the very low temperatures, the Lauren Johnson Golf Tournament has been rescheduled for March 4 and 5. For athletic updates please visit the Athletics Department on www.visd.net and be sure to follow the VISD Athletics Facebook.

Parernts, Students received their Progress Reports today. If your child did not receive a progress report, they will need to pick it up from the Business Office.
