River Otter Running Club- Last Race 9/22

Guys and Gals Read
Guys and Gals read program, working alongside our district Library Media Services, welcomes our school partners into Anne Wien to read to various grade levels during lunch. We enjoy our school partners!
Reading Intervention
This week our school starts our River Otters Read. Based on data, students are placed in reading groups that will best meet their needs in order to intentionally teach literacy skills and promote the love of reading! In addition to regular language instruction, every River Otter receives an additional 30 minutes of smaller group instruction based on what each student needs.
Save the Date!
We have such a dedicated PTA and we are so happy to kick off a morning event that welcomes students and families in for a treat every first Friday of the month in the Anne Wien gym. Mark your calendars for October 7th from 8:00 am-8:45 am!
Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program
River Otter students enjoyed fresh blueberries this week. We are so thankful for this weekly treat for our students to learn about and enjoy.
Leslie's Children
We are so lucky to have the support of Leslie's Children to support the need for food for our students over the weekend. Leslie Campbell was a long-time principal of Anne Wien Elementary. She was an advocate for students and did everything she could to support students at school and at home. If food is a need in your family, we request you fill out the very short form for Leslie's Children and a bag of food will be provided to your student. Leslie had such a huge heart and compassion, we feel lucky to continue working with her husband Joe to continue serving our students and families through the Leslie's Children Program.
Anne Wien Elementary
We work hard, play fair, and take care of each other!
