Any parent or guardian whose student is enrolled in Health at the Winter Sports School District may request an appeal of curriculum used in the state-mandated Human Sexuality program.
Under Utah State Board Rule 277-301.8 this serves as notice that Winter Sports School has in its employ individual(s) who hold LEA-specific educator licenses, license areas, or endorsements.
The following designations or levels apply to educator licenses, license areas (i.e.-elementary, secondary, special education), and content endorsements (i.e.-mathematics, music, Spanish, social studies).

As required, we will post a link here to each year’s updated School Report Card issued according to USBE’s Accountability procedures. For 2020, because of the timing of our statewide testing at WSS compared to the rest of the state, and the change from SAGE testing, to ACT Aspire, to Utah Aspire Plus for 9-10th grade accountability measures, the USBE Accountability team does not have sufficient data to issue us ratings on growth and achievement this year.
