PAWS TO READ AT WWPL

Paws to Read continues to occur at Westfield Washington Public Library from 10:30am to 11:30am, on the second Saturday of each month, even through the winter holiday season. Paws to Read is a great opportunity for kids to practice reading out loud to a friendly dog, in a non-judging atmosphere. Pre-registration is strongly encouraged. To register, parents call the WWPL Children’s desk at 317-896-9391.

PTO Movie Nights

This year we’ve got a lot of fun filled movie nights planned for the students, but we can’t make these events happen without your help! Parent volunteers are needed to help ensure organization and ultimately safety so all our kids have a great night watching a movie with their classmates.

We understand for some of you when you drop your kids off with us its “Date Night” and that is one of the awesome benefits of Movie Nights, but please consider volunteering on those nights when your child’s grade isn’t scheduled to attend. You can even bring your little ones to join in on the fun on the night when you volunteer!

The 2018-19 Movie Night Lineup

Jan 25 (K & 1st Grade) - The Lego Movie

Mar 22 (2nd & 3rd Grade) - My Neighbor Totoro

May 17 (4th Grade) - 4th Grade Picks!

Volunteer shifts are fun, simple and gratifying and the best part is they only last 3 1/5 hour at the most. As an added bonus this year when you volunteer you will receive 2 free movie tickets to the IMAX Theater at the Indiana State Museum to have a Movie Night of your own.

Sign up for a shift or two at http://tinyurl.com/SSESMovieNight

Thank you for your support of your PTO!
