Happy Monday!

Happy Monday! I hope everyone enjoyed a nice weekend. Last Friday, the children were lucky enough to be able to go enjoy the very first Willard High School Homecoming Parade. Since we are so close to the high school, we just walked across the soccer field and enjoyed about a 15 minute parade. We saw our A+ tutor, Kylie on the DECA float and gathered and shared candy that was passed out. How, exciting!

I have a few news items I wanted to pass on:
* Willard East will have our Veteran's Day Assembly again this year. If you have a family member who served in the military and would like them recognized, please let me know.
*Remember, Parent-Teacher Conferences are coming up on October 28 and 30. I will be sending out reminder slips of your time. If you didn't sign up for a conference at Open House, please let me know and we will get a time for you. I am looking forward to telling you how great your child is!
*Willard East will be hosting a community meeting to discuss the possible elementary boundary changes with the opening of the new elementary building on November 6 at 7:30 (after the 3rd grade music program).

There is a link for you to subscribe to this blog. If you subscribe to the blog, you will receive an email notice each time I add a posting. Since I am still in the process of figuring out how to work my blog, I will continue to send my own email notice to each of you when I post a new entry for a while (just in case).

And again, thanks for your patience :)

The Beginning

Wow, I think I have finally managed to get my blog up and going! This is a new adventure for me, but hopefully it will be a great tool in helping to keep great communication going between school and home. This is just the beginning of my blog. I will be adding updates to it about the activities your children are involved in here at school along with adding links to informative and hopefully helpful spots for parents. Stay tuned...
