#BackToSchool2025

Dear Bears Families!

Riversprings Middle Open House will be August 6 | 4:30–6:30 PM

We’re excited to welcome our students and families back for Open House!

Here’s what you need to know:

📅 Date & Time: Wednesday, August 6 | 4:30–6:30 PM
📲 Student Schedules Go Live in FOCUS at 4:15 PM

• There will be no printed schedules available at the school.

• Families must log in to FOCUS to view class schedules and room numbers.

Campus maps will be available, and our cheerleaders will be stationed throughout the school to help you find your way and answer any questions.

We can’t wait to see you and kick off a great year!

This morning’s Back-to-School Faculty & Staff Pep Rally was one for the books!

Teachers and staff from every corner of Wakulla County Schools packed the Wakulla High School gym to kick off the 2025–2026 school year with school spirit and pride. It was the first district-wide Welcome Back Pep Rally under Superintendent Rick Myhre, and the energy was undeniable.

From the moment they arrived, attendees were greeted by the powerful sounds of the Wakulla High School Marching Band, the WHS Color Guard, and cheerleaders from Riversprings Middle, Wakulla Middle, and Wakulla High—creating a high-energy welcome that set the tone for the year ahead.

🎤 Powerful words were shared by District Employee of the Year Sean Simmons, followed by Colleen Maley, 2025 District Teacher of the Year, who set the gym—and Superintendent Myhre—on fire with her inspiring message.

🚌 Thank You for Your Patience, Wakulla Families!
We’re so grateful for your support as we roll out the new Transportation Information Form in FOCUS for the 2025–2026 school year.
We know some families are having trouble accessing the form — and we want to help!

✅ You’re not listed as the Primary Guardian (#1 contact) in the FOCUS PARENT PORTAL.
Here are steps to update the guardian priority in your FOCUS PARENT PORTAL >> https://5il.co/3mh2a

✅ Your parent account isn’t linked to your existing/registered student.
Here are the steps to add your child(ren) to your FOCUS PARENT PORTAL>>https://5il.co/3mh2c

✅ You’re using a student account, which won’t display the form.
Here are steps to set up your own account in you FOCUS PARENT PORTAL>>https://5il.co/3mh2b
