Retake Picture Day is coming up on:

Wednesday, Nov 4

If you're satisfied with your child's picture, no further action is required.

If you purchased and were unhappy with your Picture Package, please send your Picture Package to school with your student on Retake Day. Your Retake Picture Package will be produced and shipped to the school four weeks after Retake Day. Please note, if your child is photographed on the original and Retake Picture Days, the Retake picture will replace the original picture in certain products, like the yearbook.

Students who were absent for Picture Day should come to school prepared to have their picture taken. If you have not preordered, please use the Retake Order Code 0497BGF to place your order at https://inter-state.com/Order. To see your Order History, check your Inter-State Account.

The BLUESTEM BOOK CLUBS meet each month to discuss a book selected from our Bluestem Nomination list. The meetings are designed to be a celebration of each book. We talk about what we liked or didn't like and play a game related to the book. Click HERE to complete the registration page.

Veterans Day is right around the corner! We want to honor our Wild Rose community Veterans here at Wild Rose in multiple ways. We would like to invite Veterans and their Wild Rose connection/family to breakfast in the morning before school on November 11th. If you would like to bring your Veteran to Wild Rose please see the link below to RSVP. All RSVPs must be in by Monday, November 3rd, in order for us to plan accordingly.

We will also be having an assembly for students and staff in the afternoon of Veterans Day. Unfortunately we do not have the space to have our Veterans join us, which is why we hope we can honor our Veterans in person in the morning. However, we do create a slide show for our students and Veterans to view at both the breakfast and the assembly. Please fill out the form below to share information about your family's veteran to be honored, even if they are not able to be with us in person or if it is a Veteran that has passed away.

"Hey, Band! The Great Turkey Tune Up practice challenge is here for November! Students who can perform all the songs well will be recognized in an awards ceremony after fall break and earn a prize. This is a great way to prepare for our December 14th Winter Concert. Good Luck and Gobble Gobble!
