Reflections Projects Due Nov. 8
For all scholars working on a Reflections project....Reminder that your completed project is due no later than November 8! Can't wait to see your creativity!
Art Supplies
Mrs. Marks is leading our young scholars in some pretty amazing art projects! There is a need to restock the some supplies. We would be very appreciative of donations of black or color fine point Sharpies and also kid-friendly magazines. Mrs. Marks does have an Art Amazon Wish List titled "Mrs. Marks' Wish-list". Thank you!
Spirit Night at Mooyah Wednesday
Take a night off from cooking and get some great food at Mooyah!
3300 E. Broad St., Mansfield, TX 76063 (360 South Bound & Broad St)
Mooyah donates a portion of the proceeds back to WBA!
Read for the Record Thursday
Each year PTA sponsors our scholars participating in Read for the Record. Jumpstart’s Read for the Record brings together millions of adults and children around the world each year to read the same book on the same day in order to raise awareness about the critical importance of early literacy. This year, Jumpstart is celebrating their 14th anniversary of Read for the Record on November 7 with the book Thank You, Omu! All scholars at WBA will participate in Read for the Record on Thursday!
Report Card Going Home
We have completed another grading period! Report cards will be sent home with scholars on Thursday, 11/7. Be on the look out! Please sign the report card and return to the teacher. Should you have concerns with your scholar's progress, please communicate with the teacher.
4th Grade Egg Drop Friday
4th grading is holding their annual Egg Drop showcase on Friday at 1:25. Scholars design a contraption to hold a raw egg and hopefully protect the egg from breaking when dropped from the roof. Our scholars love this event! Parents are invited to attend the showcase, however must receive a visitor's badge before joining the scholars outside. You can register for a Fast Pass for the event here.
Volunteer/Chaperone Requirements
If you foresee that you will do any volunteering on campus or attend a field trip as a chaperone, you must complete a background check. This is a requirement in MISD. A background check must be completed EVERY YEAR. A completed check will apply to all MISD schools, but it is very helpful if you choose Willie Brown Academy when you apply. If you have not completed a background check for this school year (beginning July 1), you will not be able to volunteer or attend a field trip. https://www.mansfieldisd.org/parents-students/campus-volunteers
Join REMIND
Please join the Willie Brown campus REMIND group! This is a fast and easy way for Principal Eastlick to get a message out to parents when needed. Your phone number stays confidential!
