Weekly Update 6/7

 Dear Wines Families, 

It’s quite amazing that we have nearly reached the end of the school year. I want to thank our entire community for a fantastic year. While we began the process of getting back to normal last year, ultimately it was this 2022-2023 school year where we really found our pandemic way again as a school and a school community. All of our traditions were restored and new traditions have emerged as well. Your children have been delightful in every way and on behalf of our staff, thank you for sharing them with us and allowing us to be part of their lives. Thank you to all of our families for supporting your kids and our school. Wines is an amazing place to be and it is because of our tremendous families. As with every year, we will say goodbye to many families as you move on to middle school and beyond. It has been a pleasure having you at Wines. Now we head off to summer months and I wish everyone a joyful summer and we’ll be right back at it before you know it!

Report cards will be sent Friday via secure email. Kindergarten through 5th grade families will receive three separate emails: Report Card, NWEA Scores, and Special Area Class Report Card. Unfortunately, it is currently not possible to have all of these sent in a single email. Young 5’s families will receive two emails: Report Card and Special Area Class Report Card.
