Wildwood Weekly

The holiday season always provides ample opportunities for us to offer kindness and encouragement to others. At Wildwood, this is one of our four core values that reminds us that we all have the capacity and responsibility to treat others well and build others up. In the weeks leading up to Winter Break, help your children look for ways to do this at home, at school, and in our community. Better yet, do it with them.

To get you started, I've included one of Wildwood's favorite videos about kindness below. Enjoy.

Warmly,

Mr. Lynch

On Monday, November 18, Wildwood will conduct the first round of this year's school spelling bee. All interested 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade students are invited to the MPR after they eat lunch to take a 25-question spelling test that will determine the 8-12 students who will move forward to our final spelling bee in December. Any 3rd, 4th, or 5th grade students who are absent on November 18 may join us for a make-up test at the same time and place on Tuesday, November 19.

Not all fliers will appear as images in our Wildwood Weekly newsletter, and we don't want you to miss out on community events, classes, or opportunities that are of interest to you. Fliers are organized under three tabs:

• All Other Groups

From time to time, individuals or groups in the community will distribute information and advertisements to parents/guardians on the public sidewalks during school arrival or dismissal.
