Dear Wines Families,
Before I give the news for the week, I wanted to share a
quick experience and appreciation I had yesterday. As many of you know, I have
the unique opportunity of living in the Wines community. Being the principal of
the school in my neighborhood is something that I’ve always enjoyed and I’ve
considered myself extremely lucky. Yesterday, it struck me again how fortunate
I am. While voting at Skyline High School, the voting area was literally full
of current and former Wines families. The sense of community was palpable and again
reinforced to me how wonderful it is to be part of this community and to be in
my position at Wines. I assure you; I don’t take this opportunity and
responsibility for granted!
On to this week’s news:
Picture Re-Take Day:
Nov. 13
Picture Re-Take Day is Next Tuesday, Nov. 13. If your child
did not have their picture taken on our first picture day, we will send home a
new order form. If your child had their picture taken and you would like a new
set, please bring your original picture packet to school that day. Orders can
also be made online at www.inter-state.com/order
and our code is: 327770PA.
Important Modular
Construction Information
Beginning this week, construction on one of the final pieces
of the modular building will commence. A covered canopy is being constructed
that will connect the modular building to the main school. As a result, a
temporary fence will be set up in the general area outside of Mrs. Middleton’s
windows (the Young 5’s have assured me they can make more noise than the
construction workers!). The main sidewalk around the Cooley lot will remain accessible.
However, we will just have the narrow sidewalk so please be careful at arrival
and dismissal.
Science and Builders
Fair Tomorrow!
I encourage everyone to stop by Wines tomorrow evening to
see all of the incredible student displays and projects. You don’t have to have
a child participating to enjoy this family event.
2018 STEAM Expo
Mark Your Calendar: The AAPS District STEAM Expo is
Thursday, November 29th from 6:00-8:00 pm at Skyline High School. A great
opportunity to see various ways STEAM curriculum is implemented Young 5s
through 12th grade, including the middle and high school robotics teams. Hope to see you there!
Lost and Found
We will empty our Lost and Found for the second time this
year next Friday, Nov. 16th. Please remind your child to have a look
if they are missing anything. This is also a great time to remind families to
try to label your children’s items. Lunch boxes, sweaters/sweatshirts, and
jackets are especially important.
David
