- To Woonsocket School & Community,
Announcement:
The Woonsocket School is transitioning from Green Phase into Yellow
Phase for the rest of this week and next week. We are starting to see a
little bit of spike with positives and close contacts within our school
and community. We do not see the spread
occurring in school, but we are adding some possible precautions with
our daily routines. We are also strongly recommending masks for all
students and staff. Yellow Phase is more of warning reminding everyone
to use extra precautions at home and school before a Red Phase could
occur. Red Phase is where school closes and we utilize flex learning
with lunch deliveries for a certain period of time.
As of right now, we have some quarantined staff returning early to school with masks as essential workers. If we did not do this, we would be in Red Phase already. The
main goal of our school is and has been is to keep the school open and
be safe at the same time. But if we do not have enough staff to run or
other circumstances from the DOH occur, we have no other choice but to
close down for a certain amount of time. We need everyone to help
take the extra precautions so this does not happen. Thank you.
Rod Weber
Woonsocket Supt.

Community
Woonsocket Wi-Fi
The Woonsocket Community and Events Center has expanded its central role in connecting community residents and visitors. Santel Communications recently installed a Public Wi-Fi system that provides free Wi-Fi.
According to Woonsocket Schools Superintendent, Dr. Rod Weber, “The school’s remote and eLearning platforms require the student’s reliable access to the Internet. It is important for the school to work with families and community to provide connectivity they need to continue learning through varied pandemic conditions and restrictions. Santel approached the school on ways to help and within a short amount of time, free public Wi-Fi was implemented.”
The community center now has Wi-Fi coverage inside and outside the building. The students and public are invited to use and access Internet for their needs. General Manager Ryan Thompson of Santel states, “Our enhanced Wi-Fi systems allow expanded coverage in an area commonly used by the community for many different events and gatherings. If more stringent social distancing is required, we felt it was important to offer students and residents outdoor ‘drive up’ Internet as well. Drive up, park, connect. Easy, safe and convenient.”
Internet-connected device users should select the community center Wi-Fi access point on their device and with no password required the system allows up to a 2-hour session of free Wi-Fi internet.
