Wiggin Street Parent Update

Better Together
Families,
This week was filled with great opportunities to learn in a variety of ways including our second grade and fifth grade field trips to Memorial Theater for YES Concerts. The Youth Enrichment Services (YES) Theater Series is facilitated by the Knox Educational Service Center (ESC), and the series is funded by the Knox County Foundation.
The Fall Mumkin and Mumsters Sale is running through September 13th. You can learn more about prizes students can earn in the video provided above. All sales are done online and Mums will be delivered Thursday, October 5th. We are in need of volunteers to help organize the mums on the playground and with pick up. You can sign up for time slots in the sign up genius linked above. We appreciate the help!
Check out the pictures and videos below from our fun week!
Have a great weekend,
Christy Grandstaff
