Take Our On-line Survey
Wayne Local is soliciting feedback from our parents and other stakeholders by completing an online survey. The survey only takes a few minutes to complete and the results will be very helpful as we strategically evaluate our district and plan for the future. The survey will be posted on our website www.wayne-local.com starting March 10 until March 25. Results will be reviewed by our administration and shared with our board of education and community.
Thank you in advance for your support of Spartan Pride Community Wide.

WLS Spartan Scrip Central is up and running, we have experienced a 100% increase in participation in one week - don't be left out! Scrip is a win-win for both you and WLS. Here is how it works - you purchase gift cards from various retailers at face value and WLS gets a percentage back from the sale. Many of the card choices are purchases you would make anyway so what a great way to shop and support WLS at the same time! Choose from options that include restaurants, gasoline, pharmacies, department stores, sporting goods and so much more!
