Wiggin Street Parent Update

Dear Wiggin Street Families,

It has been a fun week starting with 2's Day on Tuesday! Please don't judge me in my tutu, but there's not much we won't do for your kids:) We started the morning like an old radio station rewarding the 22nd caller. Second grade had activities throughout the day related to 2's, and we ended the day with a dance party over the intercom.

The top fundraisers for the Math-a-thon were announced yesterday and celebrated with Olympic medals, and today we had Spring pictures.

All of this happens while we continue to focus on academics and closing the gaps due to a pandemic. So much growth has happened this year, and we're not finished YET!

Best wishes,

Christy Grandstaff

Thrive Kids Weekly Update

This week at Thrive Kids: We ran. We jumped. We lunged. Plus, we talked about being leaders. Sometimes it’s not always obvious the steps to take to become a leader but we are working on helping each child see that they can be a leader both in the school and at home! This week we talked about solving problems by seeing SOLUTIONS instead of problems. We get to decide what we see and this week we encouraged the students to recognize that “Leaders Solve Problems”!

Please remember that students will go outside on days where the temperature with wind chill accounted for is at or above 20°f. Be sure your child is dressed appropriately for the weather each day. Coats, hats, and gloves are necessary at this time of the year. Boots are required for playing in the snow. If you need assistance with winter outerwear for your child, please contact our school, and we will happily find warm clothes for them.
