Important Advisory: Advisory for All WCPS Schools In light of current forecasts indicating poor air quality due to smoke from wildfires in Canada, all Worcester County Schools have been advised to take the following steps to reduce exposure for young students and any staff with respiratory issues: • Avoid strenuous outdoor activities. • Keep outdoor activities short. • Consider moving physical activities indoors or rescheduling them. All students and staff should take these steps to reduce exposure: • Choose less strenuous activities (like walking instead of running) so you don't breathe as hard. • Shorten the amount of time you are active outdoors. • Be active outdoors when air quality is better.

Congratulations to the Worcester Technical High School SkillsUSA teams for their recognition at today’s Worcester County Commissioners’ meeting! #WeAreWorcester #WorcesterProud
