Principal's Message
December 11, 2020
Hello Willink Families,
I hope this inter-holiday period finds you all staying healthy and fighting the pandemic fatigue!
We're doing our best to keep smiling as the weather gets colder and the days get shorter. Below you'll find some updates from our Willink PE department who is not only finding creative ways to safely keep students physically active, but also spreading cheer with holiday wreaths, christmas trees, Hanukkah menorahs, and Kwanzaa kinaras. A very Happy Hanukkah to our Jewish families which began last night!
In other PE-related news, we're excited to share that a second modified sport will be offered this winter. See below for information on modified swimming for 7th and 8th grade girls and boys. Modified Nordic Ski begins on Monday!
Have a nice weekend.
-Brian.
Willink In Action!
From the PE Department!
Our PE teachers have been planning and 'thinking outside the box' this year with socially distant appropriate activities. Our students have experienced things like: four square, floor pong, table tennis, can jam, and have infamously turned our back fields into our own back nine golf course. Looking forward to Carnival games in PE for the next couple of classes.
Thanks to all of our amazing students who always strive to do their best and our constant parent support.
Attention to all 7th and 8th graders interested in swimming this year
Modified practice starts, at the Aquatic Center, on Monday, December 14th from 4-5.
Please make sure that your family ID is up to date. You'll need a mask. Join our google classroom for more information. Code: ikqdvcj
Hope to see you there!
New this year! Parents can submit pictures to be in the Yearbook!

Students Grades 8-11 Encouraged to Prep for Course Selection
Course selection time is fast approaching for Webster CSD’s students in grades 8-11. An important step students and their parents/guardians can take to prepare for the planning is to review the High School Course Descriptions and Resources found online at this link. It provides features such as connections to career clusters and live links to a variety of websites that offer in-depth information on everything from graduation requirements to course selection and program planning.
More information will be forthcoming from students’ teachers and school counselors.
