Happy New Year!
Thank you to all of those who were able to participate in our Spirit Week when we returned back to school in January! Trying to bring a little bit of normal to our school and the pictures you shared made us smile every day. Thank you! We miss our Wildcat Students!!!
Just a reminder that there is NO school on Friday, January 22nd due to a teacher professional development day. January 25th is the start of the 2nd semester so please help your child get in all needed work this week. We are currently working on our small groups that we would like to bring back for tutoring sessions. The estimated start date will be February 16th. We will contact you if your child is on this list and you can let us know if you are interested. We are following the district protocol for who to bring back for tutoring. Here is the district's visual to help understand the return to school plan: LINK
If you have any questions for us feel free to reach out. You can ask any question on the district's Lets Talk app or call our office at any time.
Please continue to watch our Facebook page (link below) as well as our Whitney web page at ysd7.org/Whitney, for regular updates about what is happening at Whitney.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Newell and Mr. Hunt
