Watertown-Mayer Schools distance learning plan is up and running, with nearly 100 percent of our students connecting with their teachers to ensure learning continues throughout the district. In addition to constantly monitoring and adjusting our learning plan for students, we also continue to update our COVID-19 webpage. Please continue to refer to this site for support throughout the duration of distance learning in our schools.
We are truly living through a time without precedent in recent history. It’s a time that will present us all with many challenges in the weeks to come. However, I want you all to know that Watertown-Mayer Schools continue to stand committed to make authentic learning connections in support of our students and families.
Thank you to all staff, students and families for everything you've done to contribute to our distance learning plan. Your patience, perseverance, and collective commitment to make the best of these very challenging times is greatly appreciated, and please: Stay home, stay safe, and stay healthy.
Go Royals!

What if my child does not have Internet access or a device to complete online work?
We are actively monitoring this scenario in our district. We have contacted all families who have indicated that they have no internet access at home. We will continue to be in contact with those families to support distance learning. If your family situation changes and you no longer have internet access, you should contact your child's building principal. If you have multiple children in the district, you need only make one contact. Contact information can be found on the Contact Us page.
