BIKE TO SCHOOL DAY
On Wednesday, May 3 Windom Elementary is encouraging "Bike to School Day." Students that live too far from school to bike, or that want to ride with an adult, can meet at the BARC parking lot. School staff members will lead students to school on their bikes from the BARC building (1012 5th Ave, Windom, MN 56101). Students can meet at the BARC parking lot at 7:30 AM to leave for school at 7:35 AM. Your student will need to ride bike home after school or be picked up.
School Sealant Program
Our school will be hosting the Minnesota School Sealant Program, where your child has the opportunity to receive FREE or reduced cost preventive dental services at school. A licensed dental professional will be offering sealants, cleanings, and fluoride varnishes to students.
The School Sealant Program will be happening on: Thursday, May 4th for grades K-5.
Consent Forms have been returned for a number of students that will participate in the program.
CAREER DAY
On May 9 students will spend the afternoon learning more about career opportunities for when they grow up. Cassie Muske and Melissa Pletcher have been working hard to line up numerous individuals to speak about their career. It will be a great afternoon of learning.
