Thank you to all the PTA volunteers who gave up part of their day to come and help with our Valentine's parties this week. Our students had a fun time with the games, crafts, and handing out their cards. ❤️

With report cards coming in approximately 3 weeks, our teachers are doing a lot of assessing. We want to see how much your child has grown since the beginning of the year. Remember that our report card is standards based... what a Wildcat should know when he/she/they finishes the year. Please be sure your child is coming in well rested and on-time. When students are late or excessively absent, it makes catching up difficult for everyone.

If you are purchasing a yearbook, please be sure to order by the March 18th deadline.

There is NO SCHOOL on Monday, February 19th. The Board of Education also approved March 19 as an E-Learning Day due to the buildings being used as polling places. Please hang on to those packets we sent home in January that have days 3-5. It is also posted on the website if you have misplaced it.

Enjoy the three day weekend!

Each year, we are required by the state to have parents complete a survey called The 5 Essentials. It gives you a chance to let us know what we are doing well and areas in which we need to improve. It should take about 15 minutes. Your feedback is super important for us!

It's our biggest group yet with Positive Office Referrals! We loved to see so many being safe, caring, and ready this week! Woo-hoooooo!

Have a great weekend to our 471 readers in 13 states and Mexico!

If you've noticed anyone at Willow going above and beyond, please use the link to recognize him/her/them! 💖 I share your kind words with them in my staff bulletin.
