Dear PWS Families,
The excitement for next week's Halloween Parade is building in the school. We have had many students already come up and tell us what they'll be dressing as. We can't wait to see the many creative costumes, please remember to leave any weapons, that may be part of a costume at home. The parade will kick off at 1:30. Parents are invited to come and watch. There will be cones set up around the blacktop to let you know where to stand. The parade will start by the Kindergarten doors, come down the driveway then around the blacktop, and reenter the building at the front door. We know it is going to be an amazing event.
We were able to spend some of our time this week in Kindergarten. There is nothing like Kindergarteners singing their Good Morning song to put you in an instant good mood. It was also great to see them learn whether a pumpkin would sink or float.
Last night was our annual Math and Literacy Night. We welcomed over 100 families for fun with math and reading games, Breakout activities, crafts, and read alouds from some Bedford High School friends. Thank you to Mrs. Lombo and Mrs. Leyden for coordinating this exciting evening. Please enjoy some pictures from this night by following the link below.
On November 8, we will be holding our Veterans Day Assembly. Please click on the two links below for information about this event as well as our Wall of Heroes display.
Have a Great Weekend,
Cheryl Daley, Principal
Dan Mitchell, Assistant Principal
