Counselor's Cabana
I just want to share with you that WPE has received a very generous donation from one of our parents: This parent wants to make sure every children from WPE have a little something from "Santa". In the next couple days "Santa" will drop a bag in your room with a toy for each one of your students. Please give the toys out to the kids on the day of our Holiday party. You are welcome to share with your students this act of kindness. Also, please encourage your students to write a Thank you card for this Kind Family.
