I trust that all of our
Walt Disney (WD) families are
enjoying some summer fun. As one parent recently shared with me, “I am in
complete denial that the first day of school is only 3 weeks away.” I would
especially like to welcome our new WD families to our community. Whether your
child is about to enter Kindergarten, or you and your family are new to our
neighborhood, on behalf of the entire WD community…WELCOME!
As a special reminder, our incoming
Kindergarten “Getting to Know You” day is coming next Wednesday, August 11.
During this day, your incoming Kindergartener will spend 40 minutes working
with our Kindergarten teachers while parents will hear an orientation from me,
our PTA President, Trish Baer, and our DESEF President, Jan Devilbiss. We will
use the information gathered during this 40 minute “assessment” as one factor in creating balanced
Kindergarten class assignments for the upcoming school year. If your incoming
Kindergartener was enrolled in June, you had an opportunity to sign up for either
the 10:00 am, 11:30 am, or 2:00 pm session. If you did not sign up, we will
call you soon or you can call our front office (479-3900) to sign up for a
session.
As all of our families prepare for
the upcoming important dates while squeezing in your final summer activities, I
wanted you to have a list
of important dates to put into your calendar. Feel free to download it by
clicking on the link in the previous sentence. Please note that these dates and
events are subject to change.
Thank you and the staff and I look
forward to seeing you later this month.
