WOLFPACK PRESS

Happy Fall, WolfPack! 🍁

October is a wonderful time to enjoy the beauty of God’s creation as we watch the leaves change, feel the cooler temperatures, and settle into the school year's rhythm. Fall reminds us that change can be beautiful and that each new season brings opportunities to grow, learn, and appreciate the blessings around us.

October is also filled with exciting things happening at STWSTB! We are introducing two new student incentives: Wolf of the Week and Spirit Wear Fridays. These programs give us more opportunities to recognize students who demonstrate the WolfPack Way and make positive choices each day.

We will also recognize Fire Prevention Month and Red Ribbon Week, giving our students important lessons about safety, healthy choices, and taking care of themselves and others. Of course, October would not be complete without Halloween and all the fun that comes with it! We are also looking forward to Bingo Night, a great opportunity for our families to come together and enjoy some time as a WolfPack.

As we enter this busy month, let’s remember to be grateful for the many blessings God has given us and to look for opportunities to be a blessing to someone else. A kind word, a helping hand, or a thoughtful choice can make a big difference in someone’s day.

Wishing all of our students and families a beautiful and blessed October!

Happy Fall, WolfPack! 🐺💙🍂

In partnership,

Details and specific directives will be sent home by mid-October for each class. Get ready for a spook-tacular celebration! 🕸️🍬🧡
