Back to School
It is hard to believe that Summer is coming to an end and the new school year is about to begin. With a new school year on the horizon, many emotions arise and you may find yourself wondering..."is this my child?" Surely it is, just remember that your loved ones are experiencing a lot of curiosity and wonder and that shows up in many different ways.
Community Events
This summer, Wolcott Street School hosted 6 weeks of STEAM Camps for students entering 2-7th grade. We also hosted the "WIN" Summer Academics Academy, which was by invitation only. There were music and sport camps, too. Collectively, we saw over 300 different students this summer!
Here are some highlights:
School Meals
One breakfast & one lunch is available for every student in PreK-6 daily. It does not mean that students have to take the free breakfast or lunch, just know that it is available.
At Open House, families will be able to communicate their interest in school Breakfast by completing a simple form indicating whether your child will have breakfast at school everyday, some days or never.
Open House
We look forward to meeting all families on Tuesday, September 5th from 4:30-6pm for our Annual WSS Open House. Bring your school supplies, meet your teacher, grab some dinner or a snack! Be sure to stop by the auditorium hallway for information on PTSO, Scouts, and Rotary - Kitchen!
Character Kick-Off
Friday, September 8th will be our WSS Character Kick-Off Celebration. Please wear your grade level color to help unify our grade levels.
