Weekly PWA Family Email
Week 29
March 8th, 2019
Happy International Women’s Day! This week, we honored the women in our lives, as well as those who have worked to improve the lives of others. Our students wrote about their mothers, and did art projects celebrating the women that inspire them.
Today, we’d also like to take a moment to honor the amazing women of PWA, who enrich our children’s lives in immeasurable ways, feeding their growing minds and planting the seeds of the great things they’ll do in the future. Thank you, teachers and staff members. We love and celebrate you–today, and every day!
We had loads of fun around here celebrating Read Across America week. See below for photos of pajama day, twin day, and crazy sock day! Big thanks go to all the parents who shared books, and came in to read to the students this week.
Next week, our students K-8 will take a field trip to the Apple store in Stonebridge. Our K-2 students will get to try their hands at drawing apps, while our 3rd- 8th graders will take a coding class.
Have a wonderful weekend everyone. Let’s hope this is the last of the snow!
The enrollment period for Girls on the Run will be open until March 11, and we need several more students to complete the team. Please consider enrolling your daughters from grades 3-7! The goal is to help girls become strong, confident, and healthy. Friends and sisters who don’t attend PWA can also join our team, so if you know someone who might be interested, please spread the word!
Sign up by visiting the link in the flyer below. Practices will now begin March 14th, and will be Mondays and Thursdays from 3:45 until 5 pm here at school.
