Weekly Blog 11/20


Dear Wines Families, here is the news for the week: 

Book Fair December 3rd-6th
The Wines Scholastic Book Fair is coming December 3rd - December 6th, just in time for holiday shopping! The book fair is one of the year’s biggest fundraisers and provides a fabulous resource for the students, teachers, and our classroom and school libraries! As always, we rely heavily on our parent volunteers for a successful fair. Please sign up for a shift or two here: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0B4FAAA62EA4F49-2019

We are partnering with Scholastic this year for their All for Books program as well as their new shopping option, eWallet. Here is a link to our fair website more information on this new program and more: https://www.scholastic.com/bf/wineselementaryschool! Please keep an eye out for information on these great programs coming home in your child’s Wednesday folder! (Please note: If you are using eWallet, please don’t make specific book requirements on the notes as we are never sure what our stock will look like at the time your child shops.)

Don’t forget to mark your calendars - Tuesday December 3rd 6:30-8:00pm - to attend our family shopping night here at Wines, your first chance to shop the fair!

Email Stacy Guldal (stacyguldal@gmail.com) with any questions.

Late Arrivals
While the weather did throw us all for a bit of a loop last week, I have noticed that we have more and more late arriving students over the past couple of weeks. As a reminder, the first bell rings at 8:53. If you drop your students off in the morning, please do all you can to get your students to school in order to be in line at that time.

Parking Lot Safety: Crosswalk
Our parking lot is a busy place. Therefore, we have an established rule that students are not allowed to be in the crosswalk without an adult. In addition, if you are crossing the lot in front of the school, please ONLY cross at the crosswalk. Crossing in other areas is quite dangerous and also disrupts our traffic flow.

Lunch Volunteer Sign Up
If you are interested in volunteering at lunch recess, there is a volunteer link below. Also, we are always looking for permanent lunch hour employees (if you are going to volunteer, why not get paid!!). The job is very flexible and most of our paid lunch supervisors work partial weeks.

Thanksgiving Week
There is no school next Wednesday-Friday. Report cards will go home with students on Tuesday.

Thanks!
David
