We have had a wonderful week of learning and growing here at Workman. Thank you to everyone who came to volunteer in a classroom and watch the Halloween parade. It was so much fun seeing all the creative costumes. The smiles and laughter were contagious, and the memories made were priceless.

We hope you had a safe and exciting time with your family and friends if you celebrated Halloween.

Next week will bring a little colder weather. Please make sure that students are dressed appropriately.

Also, the lost and found is getting full again. If your student is missing a hoodie, jacket, coat, shirt, shoes, gloves, etc., please stop by during school hours to check out the lost and found racks hanging in the lobby.

Have a great weekend, and as always, please contact Mrs. Johnson or Mrs. Sturdy if you have any questions or concerns.

Congratulations to our Wildcat students and staff of the Month. Thank you, Wildcats, for being safe, respectful, responsible and kind.

• November is Native American Heritage Month. Native American Heritage Month is celebrated to honor American Indian and Alaskan Natives who have contributed to improve the character of the nation. In 1990, President George H.W. Bush and Congress passed a joint resolution designating November as the first Native American Heritage Month. Michigan is home to 12 federally recognized Native American tribes and is one of 10 states with the largest population of Native Americans.
