Dress for the Weather
It's that time of year again when we remind all of our learners to make sure they are dressed properly for the weather that day. Students should bring hats, mittens, and coats with them to school every day. We also highly suggest that you label these items with your student's name to make sure they get returned if they are lost.
Fleece Donations
We are in need of donations of fleece fabric to make tie blankets for our Service Project at our Campus Wide Friendsgiving on November 23. The blankets will be donated to the Ronald McDonald House. Fleece needs to be 2.5-3 yards long or it could be the blanket kits that are also sold at stores. Any pattern or color will work as the Ronald McDonald house is just grateful for what they receive. Thank you for donating!

Blessings In a Backpack
There are many hungry kids throughout our area, and we are trying to make sure that those kids who need the food receive it from our organization. If you wish for your student(s) to participate in the program, you do not need to do anything.
If you choose to OPT OUT of this program, you can either: sign the form sent home and return it school or fill out this Google Form.
Come Deck Our Halls!
This year, we want to decorate the halls of our campus with ornaments representing each family in our building.
You can make the ornament, purchase it, or send in one that you already have. Get creative and please don't spend a ton of money. This should be a family-centered activity with the most important piece being that it represents what makes your family unique.
Be sure to include your family's name somewhere on the ornament. Families with more than 1 household are welcome to send more than 1 ornament in. Plan on the ornament not returning home, and do not send in a precious keepsake.
Please send in your ornament by November 29th.
Thank you for making this Winter Season at Wales Campus one that celebrates the uniqueness and love each family has for one another.
