The Wilmot Word: 03-24-2023
Spring Break - School Resumes on April 3
The Week at Wilmot
It was a busy week at Wilmot. Our first graders did such a great job at their music show which was all about the four seasons. Students also enjoyed sharing artwork with families and guests. Art projects shared included gorgeous flower paintings inspired by Vincent Van Gogh's Sunflowers and their adorable Romero Britto inspired animals. Thanks to Mrs. Dubin and Ms. Georgas for organizing this awesome event.
Today we had one of our favorite assemblies with the Jesse White Tumblers. This was such a fun program on our last day before break. Our students enjoyed watching the Jesse White Tumblers
