From the Plank South Leadership Team
Plank South Families,
We're looking forward to seeing you this week at Parent-Teacher Conferences. A reminder that Thursday, March 14, Friday, March 15, and Thursday, March 21, are EARLY DISMISSAL DAYS (half days) for your student(s) on these conference days. Buses will leave at 11:20am, so please be sure there is a parent/guardian home to get your child(ren) off the bus! Additionally, there is no school on Friday, March 22nd.
The other big thing happening in the next couple weeks is the 40th Annual Science Fair. We could really use some help setting up projects during the day on Wednesday, March 20th. For those parents that checked the box "willing to volunteer" on the registration form, please don't assume this signed you up to help. Please use this link to sign up which includes specific setup times by grade level- Thank you so much for your help! We could not do this without you!
Your Plank South Leadership Team,
Scott Wilcox & Jen Sullivan

Community Arts Day!!!
Community Arts Day is coming up on Saturday, April 6th and you'll find lots of flyers below, including one to sign up for the talent show. Community Arts Day only works because of the amazing volunteers who help out so here is a link for those of you who can help volunteer. One easy way to help out is to donate a prepackaged baked good and drop it off at Plank South on 4/4 or 4/5. That option is the last one at this link. Thanks!
Drive 4UR School Benefits Marching Band
Planning to attend Community Arts Day? Why not stop by the Drive 4UR School event also being held on the Webster Schroeder High School campus on Saturday, April 6, from 10:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. NEW THIS YEAR, if you pre-register to test drive a new Ford, you can have Breakfast with the Band from 9:00 - 10:00 a.m. before the test drive event opens up to the public. Share some breakfast treats, win a prize or two, and drive for the Band! Registration is limited and required, so please email Krista_Grose@webstercsd.org if you plan to have Breakfast with the Band. ALL Drive 4UR School participants must be licensed drivers age 18 years and older will have the opportunity to test drive Ford vehicles and support the Webster Marching Band (one driver per household) !
Drive 4UR School is a community support program developed by Ford, Inc., and sponsored by Henderson Ford. The event is free to participants, and for every test drive Ford will donate $20 to the Webster Marching Band Boosters, Inc and Webster CSD’s Class of 2019.
So stop by, give a new Ford a test drive, and help out our musical marchers at the same time!
