Weekly Update 2/3

 Dear Wines Families, 

I have just a couple of updates today. 

NAAPID

As most of our families know, Wines hosts a very large celebration of National African American Parent Involvement Day (NAAPID) on the second Monday of February each year. Each year we extend an invitation to all of our families and we usually host over 300 parents at school that day. Obviously, this year we cannot replicate this special day. However, we will be celebrating NAAPID on Monday and there will be opportunities for parents to participate in class during the day. Please look for a note from your child’s teacher later this week with more information about how you can participate in class on Monday. 

Vinology Fried Chicken Dinner Feb. 10

I want to remind everyone that next Wednesday evening we are partnering with Vinology for our second take out fundraiser of the year. Vinology is offering a fried chicken dinner for four from esteemed chef Alex Young. Cost is $50 and $10 of each order goes directly to Wines. Below is a link to the pre-order form and more information about the dinner.

Snow Art

There has now been enough snow (and more to come!) to build forts, bricks, snow people, and the like. Send in a snapshot of your best snow art creation to snowartfromwines@gmail.com and we will include the photo in the next Wines Times. Please only send in .jpeg or .png files. Thank you! 

International Night Feb. 18th

This year we will be hosting a socially distanced International Night in the Wines Parking Lot on Thursday, Feb 18 from 5-6:30 PM. Thank you to those who have already expressed interest in contributing to the boxes that will be put together and distributed. If you would like to participate, whether it's contributing to the boxes or even just picking one or more up, please complete this Google Form.

Please contact Celeste Kanpurwala with any questions at celestelsmith@gmail.com.
