Reminders & Upcoming Events

Please read carefully as there are a number of important announcements and upcoming events.

NO Wolf Cafe - April 13-17
Due to the 5/6 grade's class trip to Camp Edwards there will be no Wolf Cafe.  Please be sure your child has a lunch from home each day this week.  If you have any questions please let me know or feel free to email 5/6 grade teacher Rachel DeMaris at racheld@willowwind.org.

Daily Snack
Please remember to pack two daily snacks (one on Thursdays) for your child.  A number of kindergarteners are without afternoon snacks each day.  If your family combines snacks and lunch into one lunch bag please be sure your child knows to leave something for afternoon snack.

Snowpants / Boots
It's official! Snowpants have gone home for the year.  Spring is here and the snow seems to be gone for good; however; our playground is still muddy with the Spring thaw and Spring rain.  Please be sure your child continues to bring boots to school throughout our wet Spring months.  They are welcomed to bring rain boots if you'd like to switch out the snow boots.  Please note that students must have boots to play on the grass and playground.  In addition, if your child still has a sled here at school it must return home.
