A Season of Gratitude
As we enter November, I encourage every member of our Wildwood community to embrace a spirit of reflection and gratitude.
In November, a month characterized by the gentle transition to cooler days and vibrant autumn colors, we, at Wildwood Elementary, embrace the spirit of gratitude. As the leaves gracefully fall, signaling the changing season, it serves as a poignant reminder to reflect on the many reasons we are thankful. This month of Thanksgiving provides us with an opportunity to appreciate the supportive community we've built, the dedicated educators, staff members, and volunteers shaping our students' futures, and the collective efforts that make our school a nurturing environment. Let us take a moment to acknowledge the richness that surrounds us and instill in our students the value of gratitude as we continue to foster a positive and collaborative learning atmosphere at our school.
This coming week is a 4-day school week with NO SCHOOL tomorrow, Monday, November 11 due to Veterans Day. Enjoy the rest of your weekend, and we'll see you back at school on Tuesday, November 12.
Warmly,
Mr. Lynch
