Wolf Ridge Students & Families, Wolf Ridge Students & Families,

Each student at Wolf Ridge should now have a red BH shirt. I encourage students to wear this shirt or our school colors on Fridays to show our Bunker Hill pride. We have a lot to be proud of at BH. Our students are doing great with positive behaviors and great learning happening everyday. We are also expanding our school with a new addition, upgrading our playground, adding murals and much more. Your child should have brought home a fundraising form for Perfect Pastries and the American Heart Association. Funds from the Perfect Pastries fundraiser will go towards field trips and playground upgrades. Funds from the American Heart Association will go to this organization and to our PE program to purchase new play equipment. You are not obligated to participate, but we are thankful for your support if you do.

Fundraiser: Monday, February 12th-Monday, March 4th

Wolf Ridge students can help support our school by selling perfect pastry items. Order forms will be going home with students on Monday, February 12th. Students should return forms with money collected and/or complete online sales by March 4th. Products will be delivered on March 20th.

We are adding on to our playground, encouraging each grade level to go on a field trip and paying for additional classroom supplies and materials for our project-based learning days with these funds. Recently, we were able to complete some murals with our school colors using money from past fundraisers. Please do not feel obligated to participate. We appreciate your support!
