Minute by Minute News
September 9th-13th
Wolf Ridge Students & Families,
This week was filled with SMILES at Wolf Ridge. We had our fall pictures taken on Thursday. If your child was absent or would like retakes, we will announce that date soon. It will most likely not be for another few weeks.
There are many ways for our junior high students to get involved at Wolf Ridge. While sports are always a great way to stay active, we also have many clubs for students to join. See below for more information. We want all of our students to feel like they belong!
Thank you for your support,
Mrs. Ronen

September Wellness Family Challenge
We are encouraging our staff members to STEP into STEPtember with a fun walking challenge. We want to include our students and families, too! Check out the flyer for details.
The American Heart Association reports walking is the most popular form of exercise. There are proven benefits to both walking and being outside. We hope this will provide a healthy and fun activity for your family!
You can print your own scavenger hunt but we will also send home a copy with each student.
It is not necessary to find every item. Just get outside and walk, have fun, and try your best! A winner will be chosen at the end of the month.
