Dear Wines Families,
Welcome to November! Halloween was a great way to end a busy month that also included Walktober, Run-a-Thon, and lots of learning! It has been a great fall to be sure. I have just a couple of new pieces of information today, but I’ve also again included information on the Science and Builders Fair and our Great Ideas Grant opportunities. So far, we have not had many folks sign up for Science and Builders or submit grants. We are hopeful that both of these Wines traditions will be successful!
No School Tuesday, Nov 8
Just a reminder there is no school next Tuesday for Election Day.
Dia de los Muertos Cultural Event 11/4
Below is a flyer with information on a great cultural event taking place Friday evening. A Wines parent is involved in organizing this Dia de los Muertos event in Ypsilanti.
Science and Builders Fair: November 10
Our annual Science and Builders Fair is back!! This event is designed to foster a love of learning and provide an exciting environment for the kids to proudly display their work. The Science and Builders Fair is meant to inspire young minds to learn and innovate! Nothing is too simple! It is not a "judged" event -- all participants receive a certificate. You do not need a project or title to register. There are project suggestions on the Wines Science + Builders site.
Please visit the website below for more information and registration.
Great Ideas Grants
Do you have a great idea to support Wines Elementary?
The Great Idea Grants program is an opportunity for Wines students, parents, and staff to turn a great idea into a funded program to benefit the Wines community! The grant approval committee will meet only one time this year to approve grants that can be used anytime during the remainder of the school year. Submissions are now being accepted using the Google Form linked here:
Grant limits are: $200 for students, and $750 for adults. It's the same application whether you are submitting an idea as a student, teacher, or parent. You will see that you will have the option to select who you are in the form. The deadline for the first round of applications is November 11th. Don’t let a great idea go to waste! Submit now for your chance to make Wines GREATER than it already is. We look forward to hearing from you.

Thanks for reading!
