No School On Monday

A quick reminder that there is no school on Monday, February 20th for Presidents Day per the district calendar

Valentine’s Day Activity

It was so fun going into classes and seeing students share valentines, socialize, and be part of an inviting community in the classrooms. I was able to visit several classes and the social engagement was wonderful to experience. Thank you teachers for making such an inviting experience for your students.

Morning Greeters

Morning greeters are off to a great start.  5th and 6th graders have volunteered to greet younger students at the curb in the front of the school at the loading and unloading zone.  These students will meet your student and walk them safely to the crosswalk or to their classroom.  Please remember that the front curb is for loading and unloading of passengers only.  If you wish to leave your vehicle, please find an alternative area to park.  If your 5th or 6th grader would like to participate in the morning greeter program, they should ask their classroom teacher for a permission slip.  

Chorus Concert

Come watch the Willett Chorus in our rockin' annual winter concert! Chorus is composed of 3rd-6th grade students here at Willett, and is directed by Ms. Lindsay. Our concert will be held on February 23rd, in the new MPR at 6:00 pm. A massive thank you to the Willett PTA for supporting this program!
