Willowwind
PreK-6 grade students are looking forward to our annual VIP Day. Please
read carefully as some changes to our tradition have been made. In
efforts to further “Connect. Collaborate. Think Critically.”, this
year’s VIP Day will take on a new vision as we continue to work to show our
broader community what makes Willowwind unique. On March 31st’s VIP Day,
each PreK-6 classroom will invite one dynamic community member to Willowwind to
share our school’s unique learning philosophy and how it comes to life within
their classroom. Each classroom will use the coming days to brainstorm
together community members they feel would make excellent VIPs for their
classroom. Then, students will reach out via written and verbal
communication formally inviting their classroom’s VIP to Willowwind throughout
the day on March 31st.
While
VIP Days of the past have opened doors to our students’ family members we hope
that our Willowwind families will see the value the changes in 2017’s VIP Day
will present our students as they continue to connect and collaborate with the
community larger than Willowwind School. With the changes being made to
VIP Day, we want to remind Willowwind families that our doors are always open
to visitors, and students’ personal VIPs are welcomed to visit at any time
(with prior discussion with child’s classroom teacher).
Our
annual Spring Music Concert will conclude our VIP Day where all family members
and friends are invited to attend. For the Spring Music Concert, please
join Willowwind students across the street at the River Community Church at
1:45.
Finally, please note, I will be absent this day due to my Grandma's upcoming funeral in Minnesota. I'm so sad to miss both our VIP and the Spring Music Concert (and all of our students hard work), but Ms. Erin will be here and is ready for the fun this different day will bring. The Kindergarten class has sent out an invitation to our special VIP and we hope that her schedule will allow her to come to Willowwind on the 31st. We will keep you posted on who this special VIP is. Please let me know if you have any questions.
