Dear Wales Families,
Our student council thought it would fun to have some fun themes throughout June. Please join us in showing your Wales pride by participating!
1. Dress your Best on Friday 6/6
2. Celebrate Flag Day with us by wearing Red, White and Blue on Friday 6/13.
3. Switch it up day: Students dress up like a teacher and teachers dress like the kids on Wednesday 6/18.
4. End the year by showing your school spirit on 6/25 by wearing your Wales Primary gear or wear Red & White!
Third graders had a perfect day for their picnic today! Thank you to all the volunteers that made the day so special!
Wales students will enjoy Field Day on Friday, June 20th hosted by Mrs. Klein! PTO is assisting with securing parent/guardian volunteers and will be providing a hot dog lunch for all students. Note that this is a full day event - please only sign up to help if you are available from 8:15am - 3:30pm. In order to maintain safety, only those parents volunteering are allowed to attend field day.
The lunch menu was incorrect- there will be no lunch on 6/6 as it an early release day.
Have a great week and thank you for all you do to support Wales!
