Due to a mechanical issue (well pump) in the school building, the DAMASCUS AREA SCHOOL will operate on a Flexible Instruction Day (FID – virtual learning) on Friday, February 13, 2026.
Damascus students should not report to school on this day. Instead, they will complete their instructional activities and assignments from home via remote learning. It is anticipated that the mechanical issue will be resolved and school will resume normal procedures on Tuesday - February 17, 2026, following the holiday weekend.
This communication DOES NOT impact any other Wayne Highlands school. All schools, other than Damascus, will operate normally (to include transportation), on Friday - February 13, 2026.
School Reopening - January 19, 2021
On Tuesday, January 19, 2021, the Wayne Highlands School District will welcome students back to in-person instruction for option 1 students. Wayne Highlands Live (Option 2) students may still continue to utilize their remote education each day. If you have any questions, please contact your school building principals.
