Mr. Cook's message earlier applies to grades 1-4 not Kindergarten.
Parents you should be hearing from your child's teacher in the next few days. Staring next week academic instruction in math and reading will be given either by digital device, strictly in packets or by means of both methods. You will receive more information when your child's teacher contacts you.
Parents due to the spread of the Corona Virus school will be closed until April the 6th.Teachers will not be sending any assignments and will not be preparing or releasing any work packets. There will be e-learning opportunities posted on the district website for parents that choose to use those and work with your children during this time off. Scholastic is also offering a three week free trial of resources and this will be posted on the web site as well. Spring picture packets can be mailed directly to Bill Miller or turned in upon return. All April field trips will be cancelled and may not be able to be made up. We will seek to relay information as we receive it moving forward.
Parents due to the school shutdown we will be meeting as administrators today to discuss decisions moving forward. Hopefully we can give greater direction regarding school work and other issues. Please hold off on those questions until you hear from us hopefully later today.
Due to early dismissal Kindergarten and Pre-K will pick up at 12:15 and grades 1-4 at 12:35.
Students will attend a production at the Pastime Theater next Monday. The cost is $5.00 and that goes to theater. If you want your child to attend please send money.
There will be a letter coming home with your child today that we would like for you to read closely.

Mr. Cook & Mr. Williams,
I teach special needs bus recertification classes & for the last 3 years, I’ve taught at Winfield Elementary School. I travel around the state daily & WES has become one of my favorite schools to visit. I’ve enjoyed seeing staff & students dress for Dr. Seuss Week, staff helping students out of cars in morning drop off, and a general friendly/happy attitude. Thursday, I was teaching at WES & had the opportunity to witness the Student of the Month ceremonies; it was awesome! I loved the parent involvement, music, student excitement, & teacher participation. So many times when I’m at schools, I hear the negatives or difficulties, it was so uplifting to witness the positives being celebrated.
In closing, thank you for creating an inviting environment where it truly seems that students are flourishing.
