Weekly Blog 4/17


Dear Wines Families,
As is usual this time of year, we have lots of news to share.

Wines Auction April 27th
We are just over a week away from our annual Wines auction at the Jolly Pumpkin Artesian Ales and Kitchen in Dexter (formerly Null Tap House). The event is next Saturday evening and tickets are on sale now. Please go to https://squareup.com/market/wines-elementary-school-pto to purchase your tickets. The classroom projects that are auctioned off during the live auction are complete. In today's email find a link to see all of these fantastic projects. The live auction, in my opinion, is the highlight of the night! We hope to see you there next Saturday.

Lunches with Love Next Week
Our students will be taking part in Lunches with Love, our annual community service project to support Food Gatherers, next week. Look for information in your child’s Wednesday Folder tonight. As part of the project, kids will be packing lunches next week. We can always use volunteers. In today's email I sent a link to the schedule of when classes are packing. Feel free to join us!




Art Night May 16th
Join us for Art Night to celebrate our Wines student artists! 
Thursday, May 16th from 6:30-8PM.  
Bring a plate of cookies to share.  We will enjoy artwork created throughout the school year and the new PTO sponsored murals.  All students will have artwork in the exhibition. 








Interested in Helping at Lunch?
We are always hiring lunch supervisors at Wines. If you or someone you know is interested in a flexible mid-day job that includes working in our cafeteria and outside at lunch recess, we are hiring! Interested candidates can contact me directly and I will put them in touch with Human Resources. If you are not interested in the paid position but would like to volunteer, please let me know of your available days and I will pass this information on to our noon hour coordinator.

Parking Lot
It’s never too late for some friendly reminders about our parking lot. Please make sure you are pulling up as far as you can before letting your child out of the car in the morning. In addition, the process of drop off needs to be safe and efficient. Parents should not need to get out of the car to help kids out or give one last hug goodbye. You are always welcome to park and walk your child to the building to do this. At pick up time, please also pull all the way up and wait for your child to come to you. Do not get out of your car. Kids are not allowed to head up the sidewalk toward the baseball diamond to find cars and need to be picked up in front of the building. Finally, just a reminder that our crosswalk can be a very unsafe place and students are NEVER allowed to cross without an adult. If you are escorting your child across the lot, please utilize the crosswalk and don’t cross in other areas.

That’s all for this week!

David
