Upcoming Events

Spring is hear and Willowwind's calendar is full of exciting events. Take a look below for more details. For your convenience, I have updated the Upcoming Events sidebar on the Welcome page. I have also updated our website's Calendar page.

Burrowing Owl Cafe - THIS Friday, April 13th 7:45 - 9:00
Each year, the Burrowing Owl class looks forward to hosting the April Friday Parent Coffee. Throughout their most recent Social Studies unit, they have been studying Economics by discussing supply & demand and visiting local business to understand their business models. In conjunction with this unit, 3/4 grade students host a cafe where you can enjoy breakfast items at drop off with your child. THIS Friday please take a couple extra minutes with your child and support our older friends at their cafe which will be set up in the GD Space. Baked goods and drinks will be for sale ranging in price from 50 cents to $2. If work duties call you may leave your child with BSP or me, but please note that your child would love your extra company and a yummy treat to go with your time together. All proceeds will go to fund the Owls' class trip to Des Moines at the end of May.
