Wines Weekly Update 11/20

 Dear Wines Families,

Amazingly, we are almost to our Thanksgiving break. This marks the end of our first trimester meaning we have completed one third of our school year together! It has been a remarkable fall and while we have had a lot of “new” this year, it has been incredibly smooth and this is due to our amazing kids, families, and staff at Wines. I am thankful for all of you! As we end the trimester, next Tuesday families will receive your child’s report cards sent by me via secure email. In addition, Kindergarten through 5th grade families will receive your child’s NWEA assessment report in a second email. Look for those emails on Tuesday afternoon. 

Wines Elementary Science Olympiad

We are excited to announce that the next chapter of Washtenaw Elementary Science Olympiad (WESO) 2025 will take place on May 10th, 2025, at Pioneer High School.  More information on WESO can be found here: https://wesoscience.org/

As the first step, we need the support from the past and present parents/college students/teachers to take the role of event coaches. This is a once a week practice session which will be carried out for 8-10 weeks starting from late February at a chosen location. Events are interactive, hands-on and are mainly fun!!. No experience is necessary. Coaches will be placed in events based on their interests and availability. Once we have coaches placed in events, we will begin recruiting students in grades 2-5.

Wines Weekly Update 10/30

 Dear Wines Families,

I’m sure you join me in my enjoyment of this incredible spring/summer like weather we are having here at the end of October. While I don’t mind cold weather in general, a shorter cold season is certainly fine with me! Speaking of nice weather, it does appear that it will remain fairly warm for Halloween tomorrow and it should stay dry for our outdoor parade through our neighborhood. 

Halloween 2024

Tomorrow is Halloween! Due to the Early Release, our celebration will begin early and so if students plan on wearing costumes, they should come to school in costume. This includes all last minute arrangements. Our parade will take place beginning at 9:15AM. The parade route takes us out Cooley Ave., where we then go left onto Saunders Crescent. We will then go left onto Hillridge until we reach the cut through into the Forsythe ballfields. We will then proceed down that long sidewalk back to Wines. If parents would like to watch the parade, the best place is along that long sidewalk from Hillridge to Wines. If you live in the Crescents, please feel free to share our route with your neighbors in case they want to watch us walk by. Please alert neighbors to please refrain from handing out candy, etc. 

Costumes: We ask that costumes be friendly in nature. This means no fake weapons, fake blood, etc. Our general rule of thumb is that if you aren’t sure if a costume or a prop is appropriate for school, then it probably isn’t. 

If your child would prefer not to participate in Halloween activities, please let me know and we will have an alternate activity for them. 

Science and Builders Fair Nov. 7th

Here is the link to the registration page!

The Final Walktober is Friday, Nov. 1st

Our final morning Walktober celebration is this Friday, November 1st. Please sign up to volunteer! By popular demand, the Bike Bus returns for our last Walktober event of the year! (see flyer, please ignore the date, it is happening Nov. 1st) And, after the kids are dropped off at school, parents and caretakers are invited to the picnic tables for coffee and donuts where we will be sharing information about family biking. Come ask your questions or share what you know!  

What is Walktober? It's an event that encourages Wines families to explore greener ways to get to school and to move away from commuting alone by car. Its aim is to bring awareness to the benefits of travel options such as bicycling, walking, and scooting, and to inspire families to give them a try! This can also include parking a little further away from campus than usual and walking, biking or scooting from there. There will be volunteers at the four entrances to the school grounds (see flyer) giving out stamps to the kids and cheering them on. 

Parent volunteers are needed ***** Check out the Sign Up Genius to join our parent morning cheer squad to hand out stamps to the kids from 8:15-8:45. We’ll have music and noise makers while we enjoy our Michigan fall and a little less car congestion. 

https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C084DA9AF23A4FCC25-51464434-wines

What's a "bike bus"?

A bike bus is a group bike ride where kids and adults join together on a route to school for the morning commute. Skates, scooters, and all other riders are welcome to join!

How can I join?

Meet at the locations on the flyer at the time stated. Someone will be there waiting and the group will come pick you up!

It's time to submit that GREAT IDEA you have been thinking about all summer!

Do you have a great idea to support and benefit the Wines Community? The Great Ideas Grant program is an opportunity for Wines students, parents, and staff to turn a great idea into a funded program. Examples of past funded grants include birdfeeders, grade-level sensory items, grade-level curriculum materials, technology for listening centers, playground balls, yoga calm supplies, ukuleles, and more!

Wines Weekly Update 10/23

 Dear Wines Families,

Before we get into this week’s news, I want to thank everyone who participated in Movie Night last week. The event was VERY well attended and the kids had a great time. I want to extend a BIG thank you to Amy Miles who brought Movie Night out of a few year hiatus last year and made everything really special for the kids! 

Halloween 2024

Halloween is one of our favorite days here at Wines! This year, Halloween falls on an Early Release Day so our schedule is somewhat modified from years past. If students plan on wearing costumes next Thursday, they should come to school in costume. This includes all last minute arrangements. Our parade will take place beginning at 9:15AM. The parade route takes us out Cooley Ave., where we then go left onto Saunders Crescent. We will then go left onto Hillridge until we reach the cut through into the Forsythe ballfields.
