WHITELEY WILDCAT UPDATE
May 23, 2021
THANK YOU TO OUR RETIREES
Mrs. Dianne Neumann has been at Whiteley since it opened in 1989! Although she has taught second grade she found her true to love, kindergarten at Whiteley. Teaching kindergarten has been her passion. She has shared that teaching children has been a true blessing.
Mrs. Shari Zeman began her teaching career at Willow Bend in 1988 as a special education teacher in SEAL. She also taught at Carl Sandburg Junior High before she found her home at Whiteley in 1998 teaching fifth grade. Mrs. Zeman has shared that she has loved those unplanned teachable moments when students ask questions beyond the lesson.
We will truly miss both of these wonderful educators. I will miss seeing them in their classrooms and the joy they bring to children and the staff. The Whiteley Community celebrates them on their dedication to teaching and wishes them love and joy on their retirement.
Last Week Reminders
We just wanted to provide some last week reminders. Our last day with all kindergarten students is the 26th, Wednesday. Our first through sixth grade students have a half-day on Thursday and the day ends at 11:45. Students in grades K-3 will be turning in their Chromebook. In person students will have them collected at school on Monday and virtual students will drop them off on Friday, the 28th. Please be sure that your child turns in the charger with the Chromebook. Prior to leaving for summer break we ask that parents ensure their registration is complete and that all fees are paid.
PTA
The PTA would like to thank everyone who has participated in our virtual events or joined us for a meeting during this past school year. We would also like to say a big thank you to all those who volunteered their time to make everything we did a success. We look forward to the fall with the hopes to do so much more! Have a great summer!
