The Wolf Wrap-Up
Worcester Elementary School
The Start of the School Year Was Super!
September Is Our Month to Practice
The start of the school year brings the reminders for practicing classroom routines and building procedures. We practiced our first, monthly fire drill on September 4th. The week of September 17th will be the week of practicing Lockout, Lockdown, and Shelter in Place drills. All drills will be explained to students before they happen. All drills will be reviewed by our teachers and students after they happen. School Safety is our priority! Our district and building Emergency Response Teams meet to ensure we are current with training and responsibilities. We encourage you to ask your child(ren) about their experiences this week during our practice drills.
We want dads, grandfathers, uncles, and male figures important in your child's life!
We had our kick-off event in January with 114 dads showing an interest in volunteering for a day at our school. We had seven dads/grandfathers volunteer at our school this past spring. The overwhelming reactions from our students was one for the memory books! If you would like to volunteer for a full day or half day, please make sure you have your clearances. Click here for details on how to get your clearances. If you have your clearances, pick a date between October and March. Then e-mail Mrs. Brucker (jbrucker@methacton.org) to see if that date is available. That's it! Remember you are a rock star the entire day, and Aramark provides you with lunch!
