A Message from Mrs. Lechner
Hello WFS and LDS Family,
I hope everyone had a chance to enjoy the extended weekend! A big thank you to all of our parents and guardians for taking the time to meet with our staff during Parent-Teacher Conferences last week. These meetings are such a valuable opportunity for us to discuss students' academic progress and growth. They also allow us to learn more about each child's unique strengths, needs, and learning styles, helping us work together to best support their success.
We appreciate your involvement and look forward to continuing our partnership in your child's education!
I would like to extend my sincere appreciation to all of our WFS and LDS Family Veterans. Thank you for your service and for protecting our freedom. Your dedication and sacrifice are truly valued, and we are grateful for all you have done to keep us safe.
Have a wonderful week!
Warm regards,
Mrs. Lechner
