DISTRICT & COMMUNITY UPDATES | |
|
Dear Friend of Wellness,
As we eagerly look forward to the changing seasons, it is hard to believe that Spring Break is just around the corner. Our Spring Break will be taking place starting March 24th, and with it comes a much-needed opportunity for rest, rejuvenation, and time to reflect on the incredible work we have done together. The transition into Spring invites us all to embrace healthy habits, fun play, and mindful practices as we take time to refresh and spend quality moments with family and friends.
The Wellness Promotion Task Force (WPTF) continues its mission of promoting the Whole School, Whole Community, Whole Child (WSCC) culture, and we are excited to share that our upcoming Wellness Celebration & Award Ceremony will take place on Friday, May 2, 2025. Please be sure to Save the Date and important information about it is below.
As always, our WPTF newsletters are an important tool to keep everyone informed, continuing to highlight our collective efforts to foster wellness within our District and community. Together, we create a culture of well-being where every child thrives, supported by a strong, connected school and community.
Let's keep pressing on and...
Never Give UP!
Continue being a beacon of LIGHT
for all the children and each other...let's grow STRONGER together!
~ Be healthy and safe ~
Paula
