CELEBRATIONS!

Great things are happening at WCS!


This Thursday we opened our doors for our annual Open House. It was so great to see everyone and have a chance to connect with teachers, administration, and our friends in the community. This is going to be an excellent year, in part because of YOU!

LOST & FOUND

We encourage families to label each article of clothing with their students' names. This will help keep our lost-and-found pile smaller and help us return clothes to their rightful owners. This is also great practice for lunch boxes, hats, mittens, and sneakers for PE!

HEALTHY HIGHLIGHTS

Fall is in the air and with fall comes influenza. I would LOVE to tell you all I am going to have a flu shot clinic right here, and you all can come to get your shots...however, that is NOT the case. I have not been able to get an organization to come in. Midcoast will be hosting flu shot clinics but I do not have the dates yet. If you see your primary care provider for another reason, please do inquire about getting a flu shot for your entire family. If you are interested in getting a Covid booster the new "Bivalent booster" is available.

Please feel free to contact me with questions about anything written above or if you have a medical concern about your child. I will respond to emails at: rsherwood@rsu1.org

Students in grades 6-8 are invited to join the SCHOOL NEWSPAPER! The newspaper (called The Woolwich Word) will be written, designed, and published by students.
