Welcome Back to Wines!

Dear Wines Families,

I want to welcome everyone to the 2014-2015 school year. I hope you have had a wonderful summer and are enjoying the last few days we have left. Robin and I have been back at Wines for a couple of weeks now and we both are at the point where we are ready to see our school full of kids again. I want to remind everyone of a few things as we move into our last week before school starts.

Kindergarten Meet the Teachers: Tuesday, August 26th from 6-7 PM. 

1st-5th Grade Meet the Teachers: Wednesday, August 27th from 3-4 PM.

Both of these events will take place on the back playground of the school. If you cannot make the Meet the Teacher event, you will receive class placement information via email later that same day and we will also mail the packet of information students receive that day. Parents, please make sure your child picks up his/her envelope at the Meet the Teacher event. The envelope contains my welcome letter and some first day of school information.

Tuesday, September 2nd: First day of school! Our first bell rings at 8:45. Many parents will want to accompany your child into school that morning. We welcome you to do that. If you are coming in that morning, please plan ahead so you have time to find parking, etc. Once the school day starts, please join us for coffee and goodies in the cafeteria.

Thursday, September 4th: Welcome Back Family Picnic 6:30-8:00 PM.

Tuesday, September 9th: Curriculum Night 6:30-8:00 PM.

Much more information will be included in my welcome letter that you will receive next week as well as in your child's school folder that will be sent home during the first week of school. I look forward to seeing everyone. Also, attached to this email is some information about the Future Eagle event happening next week at Skyline.

Finally, below is a video that might describe how you are all feeling as we approach the school year. Enjoy.
