Dear PWS Families,
This week before vacation has certainly been a festive one. It has been exciting to see the many ways the students have gotten into the season. The decorations, colors, creative sweaters and outfits, and Hot Cocoa have certainly gotten us ready. It is wonderful and a true reminder of the meaning of the holidays. This morning we were able to gather as a school community for a Whole School meeting where we sang songs and heard messages of kindness.
Speaking of kindness, Mrs. Daley and Mrs. Clark have recorded a short video that talks about kindness and our recent Kindness Challenge. It can be seen HERE.
Today we bid farewell to Mrs. Banash, one of our beloved lunch and recess monitors. While we will miss her we know her new opportunity is going to be wonderful. This leaves a vacancy at this position. If you are interested in coming and working at our amazing school for a few hours a day please reach out to Mr. Mitchell and he can give you all the details.
Finally, we want to take a moment to wish you all a wonderful and restful holiday and break. 2019 has been a wonderful year and we look forward to what 2020 has to bring. We will miss you all terribly over this vacation, but we wish you all the rest and relaxation you need. We can't wait to see you in 2020.
Have a Great Vacation,
Cheryl Daley, Principal
Dan Mitchell, Assistant Principal
