Have a great summer!
Dear Delaney Families,
It's hard to believe that it's already June! I want to thank you for your ongoing support throughout the year. I am truly grateful to be a part of such a wonderful school community.
I'd like to thank you for your input in the placement process. Teachers and staff members continue to work on the important task of putting together classes where all students can find academic and social success. Placement information will be sent out in August.
Our kindergarten registration page is up and running. Please click here for information on kindergarten registration. You may contact me with any questions or concerns. We also have openings in our preschool classes for next year. Please contact the Delaney Office if you are interested.
I hope that you and your families have a wonderful summer vacation. Please feel free to reach out to me over the summer with any questions.
Sincerely,
Miss Kathleen Maloney

Special thanks to all the volunteer readers, too numerous to mention here. The students love guest readers and we appreciate everyone who took time out of their busy schedules to share a story with us.
Summer Learning Opportunities
Our WPS scholars have learned many things this year and there are some additional resources your children will have access to while they are enjoying the summer with your family to maintain their learning momentum. Reading daily, even for just 15 minutes a day, along with practicing math skills during the summer months, can help to prevent regression to start the 2024-2025 school year with confidence. WPS families will receive more information via email from Dr. Beauchaine on June 3rd. Click the link to access the 2024 Summer Learning webpage.
CORI Forms
Get Your CORI done over the summer! The Delaney Office will be open from 8:00-2:00 Monday through Thursday over the summer. Please stop by the office to complete your CORI for the upcoming school year.
Counselors’ Corner
Our students have grown in ways that will serve them well in years to come! To our younger students, we have enjoyed getting to know you while teaching lessons in your classrooms (preschool-grade 1). To our second grade students, we are so proud of all that you have (and continue) to learn academically, socially and emotionally. To our third grade students, you are more than ready for this next step in “your journey!” We have loved our time with you in the Delaney!
During these final weeks of school we will continue to infuse social-emotional learning opportunities into all areas of the school building to help children develop the skills that will only enhance their learning and friendships!
Please click on the links below to view our universal visuals, care solace information and a beautiful act of empathy and compassion!
We are so grateful for the time we had with your children. Thank you for sharing them with us!
Have a wonderful summer!
