Good afternoon, Washington Families!
We want to share a reminder to help keep our students safe during Pick-Up/Drop-Off.
During Pick-Up/Drop-Off:
Please do not stop or park in the crosswalks or fire lanes. In addition to that, please remember to follow all driving laws - for example, ensure your vehicle is facing the correct direction for the lane you're in.
Thank you all for doing the big and little things to ensure the safety of our FAVORITE Wildcats!
Have a great Monday!

Our Wildcats are enjoying a relaxing break during Specials today where they listen to a book ("The Elves and the Shoemaker" or "We Don't Eat Our Friends") and take time to practice their Box Breathing.
If you haven't read "The Elves and the Shoemaker," we highly recommend it! The students had FANTASTIC ideas of how they could give to others without spending money (scooping snow, doing dishes, a kind word, and the list goes on).
If you need a conversation started for tonight's supper, ask you kiddos how they can be not only good receivers but GIVERS! You can also ask them to teach you how to use Box Breathing as a tool to help you calm nerves if you're upset!
