Happy Monday WAS Families, In this week's newsletter, we ask that you look at ways in which you might be able to help volunteer within the school day or at a time that works with your schedule. Please consider volunteering in whatever capacity you can.

Hello WAS Families, Just a reminder that tomorrow (Friday, June 7th) is a crazy hat and crazy hair day for students! This is a school wide incentive for students as we reached our fundraising goal of $5000 for school enrichment activities.

WAS Families, 1) Our school store is open for families to order gear for spring and summer. The store closes on May 12th. https://collinssports.chipply.com/williamallenapparel/store.aspx?eid=295275&action=viewall 2) This is educator appreciation week. There are many ideas online that are both meaningful and affordable. If you are looking for ways to show appreciation for all teachers in your child's life, including their classroom teacher and beyond... - Small gift cards for coffee, smoothies, etc... are always a great option. - Send the teacher an email to say thanks and one way they have made a difference. - Help "Build a Bouquet" by bringing in a flower. - Work with your child to do a thank you card/picture. - Small, prewrapped treats are always appreciated, like a favorite candy or soda. Remember, it takes a village, and when you are thinking of people to thank, you can keep it very small or large to include paraprofessionals, secretaries, lunchroom staff, and custodians as well.

Good Afternoon WAS Families, With the impending weather forecast tomorrow, we will move the fun run indoors to the gym. Unfortunately, due to the nature of how the course will be set up, we will not be able to invite families this year. We will post photos of the event in the next newsletter. Thank you for understanding.

Please share this with potential Kindergarten families.
