Hello Wickliffe families,
Happy Thanksgiving! 2020 is continuing to be a tough year, our students have returned to Enhanced Distance Learning, and the stay at home advisory is interrupting Thanksgiving plans; and so we wanted to reiterate that the PTO is here to support all families in all ways. If you or your family needs assistance, please reach out. Let us know at wickliffepto@gmail.com, we are all in this together and will do all we can.
This week, we'd like to start with some thank you's - first, to our amazing teachers, thank you for loving our students and working so hard to support their learning in these difficult times. Parents, thank you for being co-educators in a way that's more important than ever, and making remote learning happen!
What to watch for this week:
- Mrs. Oberlin and Mrs. Millers fifth graders Heart-to-Heart gift drive is underway, you can sign up to choose a child or family to shop for, to help give them a happier holiday season.
- Our online Book Fair opens on Monday November 30th, you can browse for books for gifts, and for your kids, from the virtual walk-through.
Dr. Kassoy has a wonderful book list of authentic and accurate Thanksgiving books in her food for thought.
And, scroll to the calendar for other important dates, including: NO SCHOOL on Wednesday, Thursday or Friday this week; the UA school district deadline for switching to/from the Online Academy is on Sunday (11/29); and looking further ahead, our December restaurant fundraiser at Dewey's pizza is on December 9th.
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving,
Kelley Swiney and the whole PTO
