Just a reminder that WDS families are still responsible for paying tuition for the week that we are closed (12/25 - 12/29). Make sure that payment is submitted to the office prior to the last day before the Christmas break.
The Two's Classroom Bathroom Upgrades will be done over break - we can't wait to come back and see the great new restrooms. A BIG thank you to Anne Hunter Hunter from H2 Design for being our project manager!
Resource Update
Music: For the month of December, we will be practicing our Christmas songs and rehearsing for the Christmas Chapel & Play! I can't wait to enjoy this magical season with our WDS students!
Mindful Parent Training [Thursday, January 11th from 4:45 - 5:45 PM]
We are so excited to welcome Kris Day (WDS Parent) and Roger Mancastroppa from University of Richmond to present this parent training on Mindful Parenting!
Mindful parenting has been described as a fundamental parenting skill or practice, and it has been proposed that fostering everyday mindfulness in the context of parenting can help you reduce your parenting stress and improve your relationships with your child. Come learn about quick and practical tips for practicing mindful parenting.
Director's Blurb
"It came without ribbons. It came without tags.
It came without packages, boxes, or bags.
And he puzzled and puzzled 'til his puzzler was sore.
Then the Grinch thought of something he hadn't before.
'What if Christmas,' he thought, 'doesn't come from a store?'
What if Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit more?"
This Christmas, make time for more.
