Message from Mrs. Zeman
Greetings Washington Families,
Winter is upon us, and December is always a very busy month! We are looking forward to our 4th and 5th grade concert later this week as well as some fun school spirit days later in the month. Our student council has been busy planning some events for our school!
Another thing that winter brings is that our students have been enjoying recess in the snow, and the fresh air energizes them! Please remember to send warm clothing daily; we go outside if the wind-chill temperature is above 0.
Here are some conversation starters to help connect school and home:
*What have you written about this week?
*Was it easy or challenging to accept directions today, why?
*What was your favorite part of today, why?
As always, please reach out to the teacher or the office if you have any questions or concerns. We want to continue to grow our partnerships with families.
Mrs. Zeman
