Panther Press of Wild Rose

It's been a busy week! I have included new updated forms for our Veteran Day breakfast as we were not receiving responses. My apologies for the inconvenience, but please fill the form out again for the breakfast if you are able to come with a Veteran in your family. This will allow for us to be prepared.

Guidelines for our up and coming Halloween celebrations are included please see the information. We are super excited for the McTeacher Event at the South Elgin McDonald's on Monday.

Couple of questions to ask your child to help start conversations at the table this weekend -

-What is one thing about your school that is unique?

-Would your rather travel to school by horse or a hot air balloon?

Hopefully these help foster a better conversation than - how was your day?

Have a great weekend-

Other Information & Important Dates

Come one come all to the South Elgin McDonald's the evening of Monday, October 28th from 4:30-6:30! Many of our Wild Rose staff will be present to: deliver your meal, serve you your to go order, make a sweet treat! 20% of all the purchases will be donated Wild Rose and 100% of the pie Purchases will be donated. All Pie purchases should be made with cash for the 100% donation! We are very excited to see all of our panthers come and be served by our staff! Hope you can come and join the fun!

Halloween celebrations will be next week on Thursday, October 31st. We will have an outside parade that will begin at approximately 2:00 pm on the blacktop outside. We will have the blacktop lines with cones for families to stand outside of. We run the parade by grade levels: Kindergarten leads the way and ending with fifth grade. When they return into the building they will have their classroom celebrations.

Costume guidelines: Students are allowed to come to school dressed in their costumes provided they are able to do all school activities. The following guidelines should be followed:

• No inflatables until the parade. If a student has an inflatable costume they will not be able to wear that until the parade. They will need to let their teacher know that they need to put their costume on.

• Please do not send your child in full face make-up, as they will be engaging in learning throughout the rest of their school day.

• Please remember that students are not allowed to bring replicas of weapons as part of their costumes. We also ask that students tone down anything that might scare our younger students (blood, etc.).

• Costume masks will be allowed for the parade, but not during the classroom parties.

• If a child does not want to wear their costume to school and wants to change prior to the parade that is okay as well.

• Just a reminder that food is no longer allowed for parties. Please do not send in treats for your child to pass out.

As part of the reward for a successful fundraiser, Monday Nov 4th the students of Wild Rose will get to enjoy a BMX assembly that also has an anti bullying message. Athletes will present on how to be inclusive while showing off tricks and flips on ramps on the blacktop.

Veterans Day is quickly approaching. For our student assembly we like to have all students have their veterans honored. Please fill out the Veterans Day Assembly form to add to our slide show. All responses are due by November 1st.

Following the fist form is a second form. Our school and PTO would like to host a continental breakfast to honor our student's family members who are Veterans. Please fill out the form so we can be prepared for our honored guests. All responses are due by November 4th.
