Wolf Ridge Students & Families,
We will be having a special game night for junior high students and families on Tuesday night. It should be a lot of fun with trivia, STEM challenges and more! Students can come alone or bring the whole family. The event will take place from 5:30-7:00. Spread the word!
We are all excited to cheer on the Minutemaids this week! Our 8th grade volleyball team will be competing in the sectional championship on Monday for their chance to return to STATE. Students in 5th-8th grade have the opportunity to ride the fan bus to the game on Monday. Please return the permission form by Monday morning if your child plans to attend. Let's go Minutemaids!
Thank you for your support,
Mrs. Ronen
