Dear Families,
Hello West Ridge Families!!!
Happy December!!!! Thank you to all of the parents that came out for Parent/Teacher conferences.
The Book Fair Needs Your Help!!!
We are looking for parent volunteers to help out with the Book Fair next week. CLICK HERE if you would like to sign up to Volunteer.
December Dress-Up Days:
Monday 12/16 - Holiday Movie Marathon - dress as your favorite holiday movie character
Tuesday, 12/17 - Sweater Weather - wear a Christmas sweater, sweatshirt, or shirt
Wednesday, 12/18 - Rockin around the Christmas tree - rock out your Christmas look (Holiday hair/hat/headband, Christmas socks and shirts…Make it Jolly!)
Thursday, 12/19 - The Night Before Christmas - wear your pjs and appropriate footwear
Reminders:
- If you drop your student(s) off in the morning, please pull all the way foward so the entrance is not blocked. Thank you for your help with this.
- As the wet weather is upon us, please consider sending extra socks or clothing for your students in their backpacks. We do not always have extras here at school.
- This is the time of year our lost and found fills up quickly. Please label your students coats, lunch boxes, backpacks, water bottles, sweatshirts, gloves and hats. When items are labeled, we are able to get them returned to their owner.
- Once a month we will have a fire drill. This gives students and staff a chance to practice evacuating the building in case of an emergency.
- Four times a year we will have a practice lockdown. Again, this gives us a chance to practice in case of an emergency.
- Students are informed when we will be having a drill.
Thank you,
Ms. Hoffeld
