WME Family and Friends,
Yay! It's School Counselor Week! As school counselor at Williams Magnet Elementary, I'm excited that I get to spend time learning with and from all of our scholars. We truly have the best and the brightest. I'm honored that I get to assist scholars academically, behaviorally, and with social emotional learning. PTA began this week with a card signed by each scholar. Thanks to the scholars/families who've gone far and beyond to make me feel extra, extra special this week. Be sure to show appreciate to a school counselor this week.
Heartgram sales have begun! Buttons are $1.00 each with all sales benefiting our WMS DI teams.
Good evening wonderful Williams families!
Our Destination Imagination teams will be selling Valentine buttons again this year as a fundraiser for the teams. Buttons will be $1.00 each and will be delivered the afternoon at the Valentine parties. Team members and sponsors will be in the cafeteria in the mornings starting Thursday of this week to take orders. Students will need to be able to tell us the name of the student, teacher, or other person they are buying for and whose classroom they are in. Students may buy for family members by having them delivered to their own classroom to take home to give out.
5 of our scholars work are currently being displayed at Windgate School of Art at Hendrix College! WAY TO GO EAGLES!
