Happy November!!!

In just a few short weeks we will all be enjoying Thanksgiving! However, the weeks between now and our Thanksgiving break are busy, and we need your help!!

Beginning this week, our third, fourth and fifth graders will be participating in fall benchmark assessments. The data we receive from these assessments will be critical in planning for targeted intervention and support of our students. Please help us by having your child practice good testing taking strategies like going to bed early, encouraging them to eat breakfast, and having them at school on time.

Lastly, as we move into this thankful season, I want to thank you all so much!! Without your support, we would not be able to do our jobs to the fullest. Thank you for supporting our students and our teachers!

As always, if you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me at (830) 401-1241 or via email at twehe@seguin.k12.tx.us.

In Service,

Dear Weinert Families,

I want to take a moment to address an important issue regarding traffic safety during our busy drop-off and pick-up times. Recently, our School Resource Officer and front office staff have received several calls about unsafe driving near the school.

The safety of our students and staff is our highest priority, and we appreciate your help in making our school a safer place. Here are a few reminders to keep everyone safe.

1. Designated Drop-Off and Pick-Up Areas: The front of school is reserved for students in our Essential Academics classrooms and for buses. If your child is not in this program, please use the car rider drop-off on Cedar Street.
2. Traffic Flow: We understand that traffic can get hectic, especially during peak times. To ensure everyone's safety, we kindly ask that you avoid making U-turns on Cedar Street during drop-off and pick-up hours.
3. Crosswalks: Our dedicated crossing guards work hard to ensure that everyone gets to school safely, but we also need your help! To keep our students and crossing guards safe, please avoid dropping your child(ren) off in crosswalk areas.

Lastly, please be respectful of each other during these busy times. By working together, we can screate a safer environment for all our students and staff!

In Service,

Tiffany Wehe - Principal
