Willow Parent Bulletin # 11
November 4, 2022
Thanks you to all the parent PTA volunteers who came in and helped with class parties on Monday. We definitely have the most creative parents based on some of the costumes on display! Be sure to check out the pictures below!
Our Food Drive is off to a slow start. We know inflation has impacted everyone, but also hope you might be able to pick an item from the list to help out other local families. Donations will be accepted for the next 2 weeks.
Bullying prevention lessons started this week in the classrooms. Either Mrs. Gatewood, our Social Worker or Mrs. Lang, our Counselor go into the class for these lessons. If you'd like to see more about the approach used, visit https://www.secondstep.org/bullying-prevention.
Next week has a wonky schedule. Students are off on Tuesday for Election Day and Friday is an early release at 11:40 AM.
Have fun making memories this weekend!

Advanced Tickets on Sale Nov. 9-15!
Join everyone's favorite zoo crew on a comedy packed journey around the world. After Marty the Zebra decides to chase his dream to see life outside of the zoo, we follow Marty and his crew of unlikely friends Alex the Lion, Gloria the Hippo, and Melman the Giraffe on a wild and wacky adventure from New York’s Central Park Zoo to the island of Madagascar. Will life outside of the cage be all they had hoped, or will they miss the life of luxury they have taken for granted? Either way, it is sure to be one “crack-a-lackin’” journey that will make the old and young want to “move it, move it!”
Tickets are $6 (kids 3 and under are free). Available from the James Hart Office, Nov. 9-15, or at the door!
Hey, we think you're pretty great....
