Willard PK-8 November Newsletter

Welcome to November

Dear Willard Families,

We are kicking off the 2nd Grading Period for our students as the leaves are falling and the air is getting crisp! Good news, the school is always a cozy place for students to learn and grow. We appreciate the great attendance we are having throughout the month, if your child missed one or less day of school this month they are being set up for success!

If you want to give a special shout out to a staff member, complete the link here for that staff member to receive a special "We are Thankful for You!" post.
