WORDS FROM MR. WEDOR

Hello Eagle Families,


Welcome back! We are so hopeful that you had a wonderful fall break. With the colder weather and snow, it is an exciting time to see the weather shift to bring us into the holiday season. As we move into November, we want to take time this month to pause and reflect on all the great things we have to be thankful for. I am thankful for the opportunity to lead our school with the great staff we have to move us in a positive direction.

Speaking of cooler weather, please make sure that your student is coming prepared for the weather. We do our best to send our students outside to make sure they get their much needed break time at lunchtime. We encourage students to have coats, hats, and gloves.

Some highlights that are happening this month include our Care and Share Food Drive, please look for further communication on this and consider participating and supporting this great cause. Our fall play, Stuart Little, will take place the weekend of November 11th. Our theater department has been hard at work. Please come out to support our students and their hard work. And last but not least, we will be sharing our survey results that our community participated in a few weeks ago. We are excited about where we are heading and the opportunities that are coming. We hope you all have a great and thankful November. Go Eagles!
