Choose Your Attitude
Thanks to Linda Evans for choosing a great attitude with staff and students each day while administering great care to all of us at Waterford over the last 16 years.We will miss her dearly but know that she is starting a new chapter in her life with helping and caring for others in a new capacity. Good luck on your new journey!
Thanks to the Cafeteria Staff for the extra time and preparation spent this week on preparing for our First Grade Luncheon. I appreciate your willingness to take on this task the week before Christmas. I also applaud you for your smiling faces and happy demeanors each day with our kids. They love each and every one of you for what you do for them each day! You ladies are awesome!!
Thanks to the Custodial Staff for the extra time they devote to our building each and every day to keep our building clean and sparkling. This is the cleanest building that I have ever had the pleasure of overseeing and that is a tribute to the work done each day by this great team of individuals. Thanks for going above and beyond for our kids and staff!
Make Their Day
Thanks to June, Eli, Marcia, and Wanda who made the day of many of our Waterford Families who needed support with food and gifts for the Holidays. We appreciate their hard work and dedication to this task on a yearly basis and know that our families are blessed with extra care and kindness over the holidays!
Thanks to the TLT for putting together all of the Christmas treats (along with PTO) for all staff this year and providing superb leadership in the building each day!
Be Present
Thanks to Angela for preparing our students for Singing Off the Walls on Friday morning. This is such a special tradition each year for our students and staff! Also, thanks to Gary, Todd, Linda, Moshe, Teresa, Karen, Jama, & June for supporting Angela and the program this morning.
Thanks to our HeadStart Team for being present each day at Waterford. You do a great job with the kids you service and are to be commended for being part of the Waterford team and preparing kids for Kindergarten. Kudos to a great team of professionals and educators!
Play
Thanks to everyone who partook in the Christmas "play" festivities all week: Christmas socks, hats, sunglasses, ugly sweaters/"festified wear" and PJ's. What a great week for all!!
