The Giving Basket is BACK!!
Many of our own SWS families need a little support during the holidays. If you are able, please stop by the office during conference time to pick a gift tag or two.
This is a great way to support our very own Starkweather Family during the holiday season. Questions? Contact Ms. McLaughlin, our awesome caseworker, at cmclaughlin@wcasd.net. Thanks!
Are you asking the right questions?
If you ask questions like "How was school?" or "What did you do today?", most parents would agree that the answers you get may leave you wanting more. Here is something to consider: What you ask about your child's day says a lot about what you value as a parent. Check out The Right Question To Ask and see if it changes your perspective. Try it out at home and give it some time to sink in.
Student Assembly Yesterday
Through my work I entertain, enlighten, and educate children to not be defined by limitation, and I help them learn the valuable lessons of acceptance and how to not let circumstances peel away the core of who they are as human beings.-David Harrell
