Wattles Park Elementary will be observing International DOT Day this Friday. Students can participate by wearing clothing with dots. International Dot Day, a global celebration of creativity, courage and collaboration, began when teacher Terry Shaw introduced his classroom to Peter H. Reynolds' book The Dot on September 12, 2009.

Our Watch DOGS program invites dads, grandfathers, uncles and even moms to volunteer at WPE for varying amounts of time based on your availability. This program provides an extra layer of security in the building, helps teachers and students, and allows volunteers to connect with many different students during recess while they are at Wattles Park. The pizza kick-off serves as an orientation to the program, and gives volunteers the chance to sign up for dates throughout the school year.

Marshall Community Credit Union will be starting their school branch at Wattles Park on October 10th. Please see the link below for more details. There are opportunities for student volunteers on the CU in School days. Parents can help their children apply in the link below.
