Save the Date: Curriculum Night 09.04

Mark your calendars!  PreK-6 Curriculum Night is NEXT Thursday, September 4th from 5:30 – 6:30.  Join your child’s classroom teacher as they discuss classroom plans for the 2014-2015 school year.  This event is designed to help families familiarize themselves with teachers’ integrative, engaging, project-based curriculum.

Each year the Willowwind teachers develop an “essential question” which we use to unite the preschool through sixth grade curriculum.  For the 2014-15 school year our year-long essential question is,

“What is grit, and how does grit lead me to individual success?

At Curriculum Night, teachers will describe how students develop grit, resiliency, and perseverance to help them celebrate successes and navigate through day-to-day challenges. Specials teachers and our Program Director will be available to discuss this year’s Specials curriculum and Enrichment opportunities.

Parental attendance at this event is mandatory.  Childcare is available for all children three years old (and potty-trained) and older.  Email Rachel at rachelb@willowwind.org if you are interested in childcare.


We look forward to seeing you at this event.  Here’s to a successful school year for faculty, staff, families and – MOST IMPORTANTLY – our students!
