When entering Wickersham, graduates should enter through “Door 5 (right of main entrance- when facing building)” and walk up the stairs and through the 2nd floor hallway. They will then walk down the stairs and through the 1st floor hallway and will exit through “Door 6 (door out to playground)” to Lehigh Ave.

A schedule of events and detailed description of activities will be provided by ASAP. This will be a 1/2 day event. Specials and recess are canceled. The portion of the day not spent at field day should be spent on maintaining as close to a regular schedule as possible. This is dependent on weather. In the event of inclement weather-field day will be canceled.

Summer Home Visits
Home visits are a powerful way to connect with your incoming students and families. Last summer, all kindergarten students received a home visit from their teacher. This year, in addition to visiting kindergarten students, we would like to expand the opportunity to all teachers interested. Home visits will be done in pairs. This opportunity is open to all Wickersham Staff members. This could possible be an OAA/extra pay opportunity for 2016-2017 school year. Indicate your interest and potential availability here: http://goo.gl/forms/gXZmUfH6jHaUDiTG2
Morning Meeting Focus: COOPERATION
District Updates & Announcements
See someone going above and beyond...in addition to the paper version of the Staff Spotlight found in the main office here is a link that can also be used to celebrate each other…it can be completely anonymous and there is also a spot for choice on how you feel the celebration should be shared.
