CIS Weekly Updates

Thank you to all the families who joined us for parent-teacher conferences on Thursday, October 8th! We truly appreciate your time, partnership, and dedication to your student's success. Working together makes all the difference!

We have officially reached the final stretch of the quarter! With the grading period ending this Friday, October 16th, now is a great time to check in on your student's progress and help them finish strong in their classes.

As part of our ongoing commitment to school safety, we will be conducting a routine lockdown drill this Monday in cooperation with the Wadsworth Police Department. These practice drills allow our staff and students to familiarize themselves with safety protocols in a safe, controlled environment, while also strengthening our partnership with local law enforcement. Please be assured that this is only a drill, and thank you for your continued support in keeping our school community safe!

Students who won a ride on the Pedal Bike enjoyed the trip down to the Grizzly Arcade on Tuesday. A big thank you to both the Grizzly Pedal Bike Company and the Grizzly Arcade for opening specially for us to award this grand prize. We appreciate their willingness to accommodate our timeframe and help make a memorable experience for our students. We appreciate their support!

Have an FANTASTIC Week!

Brandon Cobb, Principal

Wadsworth Intermediate School is honored to host our annual Veterans Day Celebration on Wednesday, November 11th at 2:00 PM. To help us prepare and ensure building security, we ask that every attending veteran complete our RSVP Google Form using the link below (please fill out a separate form for each veteran). Due to seating capacity in the Sandy Solaro PAC, this event is designated for our veterans; however, a companion is welcome to attend if assistance is needed. For families who cannot join in person, we will be recording the ceremony and sharing the video afterward. Please submit your RSVP here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSc-NYNTTi8YreeobY5npR705aVgVvvM4UmRUCFO-3GNyd0GtA/viewform?usp=dialog

Students can come to school in their favorite pajamas and celebrate all the reading, hard work, and fundraising that made this possible! A HUGE thank you to all of our WIS students, families, teachers, and supporters who helped make this Read-A-Thon such a success. We are so proud of our Grizzlies! Now let's celebrate in our PJs!

Our lost and found keeps growing! Please check with your student and ask if they've lost anything recently. If you'd like to come in and look through the lost and found, you're welcome to do so. Here's a link to the video of the lost and found items.

Take the night off from cooking and support WIS PTO at the same time! Join us at Casa Del Rio on Monday, October 19, from 11 AM–9 PM for our Dine to Donate night.

20% of sales will be donated back to WIS PTO, and you can participate whether you dine in or take your food to go!

Casa Del Rio
839 High Street, Wadsworth, OH

Be sure to show the flyer at the register so your purchase counts toward the fundraiser.
