Webb Newsletter

Dear Webb Families,

Tis’ the time of year for cold and flu season. We want to remind you that it is important for students to come to school as much as possible. I know it can be confusing when students are sick as to when to send them and when to keep them home. Our district nurses have shared some guidelines to help us (they are listed in the graphic below). We hope this helps you to make good decisions about sending your child to school. Remember that if you see a doctor, get a note. That will possibly allow us to excuse an absence due to medical reasons. We hope all of our families are able to stay healthy through the holidays. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to me via email; corri.nastasi@myhpsd.org or by phone; 248-658-5900.

Sincerely,

Corri Nastasi

Principal, Webb Elementary

Reading at Home - 30 Minutes - Every Student - Every Day

Webb families - please take a moment to take this very important survey below. Your feedback is appreciated. It helps us to make important decisions about our school.

Please see the lunch menu for November below.

Report Cards will go home with students on Wednesday. Please keep in mind the format for report cards. They are based on grade level standards. When you see standards that do not have a number, that means that standard was not taught or assessed this quarter but will be taught later on during the year. The students are given numbers to show their current progress:

4=Student working above grade level expectations

3=Student meeting grade level expectations

2=Student approaching but not meeting grade level expectations

1=Not meeting grade level expectations

Please let your child’s teacher know if you have any questions. Please let your child’s teacher know if you have any questions or concerns.

We will again be collecting donations for Holiday Baskets at Webb. There is a district-wide effort to collect food for those in need. At Webb we will be collecting non-perishable potatoes - mashed, scalloped, etc. All donations can be sent in with your child to school. If you are or know someone in need, applications to receive a holiday basket will be available in the school office starting November 2nd. At this time, holiday baskets are only given to those families that live within the school district, but out of district families can inquire about help as there are other resources in the community that we can connect you with.

With the holidays and cold weather approaching we wanted to remind you of a couple of things. If your child(ren) is/are in need of boots or coats, please let us know in the office. We have had some donations and have some of these items on hand. Also, if you or a family you know are in need, we also have other organizations that reach out to provide holiday support. Please let us know in the office and we can nominate a family in need. We also offer Hazel Park Holiday Baskets for families in need who live in Hazel Park. Applications for this are in the office and are due back by December 1st. We would be happy to help any of our Webb families in need throughout the holiday season.

Please see the updated bus schedule below

We are excited to announce that Edison Career Center is hosting a shoe drive fundraiser! This is an easy way to clear out your closets while supporting our school.

How It Works

Simply gather any shoes you no longer need and drop them into the designated shoe collection boxes at any of our participating schools.

Drop-Off Locations

You can drop your donations into the shoe boxes located at these schools:

• HPJH (Hazel Park Junior High)
• Webb
• United Oaks
• Jardon
• HPHS (Hazel Park Highschool)
• Edison

What Kinds of Shoes Are Accepted?

We accept any and all types of shoes in any condition. Examples include:

• Everyday wear: Sneakers, casual shoes, and slippers.
• Specialty footwear: Dress shoes, high heels, boots, and work shoes.
• Kid & Teen gear: Shoes your children have outgrew or styles your teenager refuses to wear.
• Older items: Shoes that are out of style, well-worn, or dirty.

Our next YMCA after school event will be this Thursday, November 5. Please keep in mind that we host this club about twice a month unlike all of our other clubs, it is open for registration each time, so you must sign your child up each and every time you want them to attend.

We sell bagels weekly on Wednesdays at Webb.

Please consider supporting our Webb PTA with this upcoming fundraiser.

We are excited to introduce Layah McCarroll, our new Promise Navigator for Webb! Layah is here to support your family with any challenges that may be impacting your child’s success at school. Her main focus is helping students arrive on time every day by working with families to overcome obstacles. With strong connections to local community resources, she can provide direct support or connect you with the right team to help. Please feel free to reach out to Layah whenever you need assistance!
