Weekly PWA Family Email
Week 23
January 25th, 2019
What a busy, exciting week! Our kids are all hard at work on their International Day projects, songs, and presentations.
We thank all of the parents who came out for Kindergarten Information Night; we enjoyed having the opportunity to answer your questions and tell you all about our marvelous Kindergarten program.
We’re planning an Information Night for the rest of our Elementary and Middle grades within the next couple of weeks. We’ll keep you posted, so keep an eye out for further information.
Lego night is going on as this is being written…and it’s lots of fun! Big thanks to Chef Veronica for putting together the snacks and hot dogs for this event, and to all the parents who came out to enjoy this event.
Remember: Monday is a teacher workday; school is closed, though childcare is available. Our teachers will be busy finalizing grades, and report cards will be available on Chalkable on Wednesday, Jan. 30.
Have a wonderful weekend!
Elementary and Middle School Parents: Our annual Spelling Bee Club is about to begin! Please check your child’s backpack for further information. All students are asked to participate, as this will be a school-wide activity meant to build vocabulary, comprehension, and confidence! There is no traditional spelling bee at the end, just a written exam. Students who score the highest at each grade level receive trophies at our annual ceremony.
We’d like to send a heartfelt thanks to the Brooks family for their donation of two brand new computer monitors for their children’s classrooms. Thank you for this generous gift to our teachers and their students. We appreciate you!
Stop by the Lake Ridge Chick-Fil-A between 5 and 8 pm on Tuesday, January 29th, and 20% of the proceeds from your meal will go to PWA! Vouchers went home in backpacks today, and will also be available at the front desk, and attached to this email. And yes–you can use them at the drive-thru! Proceeds go towards our fund for enhancing technology in the classrooms.
