Dear Willink Families,
November is here both in name and in weather! It was a rude awakening to have such cold and dreary days. Students who went trick or treating were sharing on how they fit warm clothes under their costumes.
This month's CAREacter trait is citizenship. Our 8th grade students will be learning a lot about what it means to be a citizen of the United States on their trip this coming week. We will also be talking about it on Titan TV as well as in 6th grade homerooms. I am sure that Social Studies teachers will be talking about it as well since election day is Tuesday. Please take that opportunity to vote and remind your children that voting in elections, whether local, regional, or national, is one of the biggest responsibilities we have. Additionally, Saturday is Veterans Day. Again, a great opportunity to share with your child about the sacrifices our servicemen and women made and are making each day.
Our 8th grade students are very excited about next week, whether they are staying home and going on the Rochester Tour or heading to Washington DC. The buzz in the building has been incredible. If your child is going to Washington, please make sure they are packing for the weather. Right now, it looks fairly dry but cool with temperatures in the low 50's. However, they should still pack a rain jacket and umbrella as the weather can turn quickly. For those attending the Rochester Tour, the weather looks about the same. You will be able to follow both trips on our Twitter feed, @willinktitans. Remember, if you don't have Twitter, the feed is also on our webpage. You can also search for #willinkDC and find all the Twitter posts as well. If you have questions about either trip, please contact the Green House Office.
I hope you have a great weekend!
Jim
