Thanksgiving Luncheon

Come and enjoy a delicious Thanksgiving Luncheon with your child and participate in holiday activities in the classroom. Grades Pre-k, Kindergarten, 2nd and 5th will celebrate on Thursday, Nov. 19 and grades 1st, 3rd and 4th will celebrate on Friday, Nov. 20. We still need volunteers to help set up, take tickets, serve  food and clean up. If you can help, please contact Jay Schmitt.

It's getting colder. We need winter uniform donations!
Now that the weather is turning cooler, many children need long-sleeved shirts and long pants. Please consider donating your gently used uniforms -- especially long-sleeved shirts, long pants and sweat shirts.  Sizes 8, 10 and 14 are in particularly high demand, but we can use all  sizes. You can put your donated uniforms in the bin next to the front office door. Please DO NOT put them in the clothing collection box near the Spalding Drive entrance.


The next Wildcat Closet sale of gently used uniforms will be during the Thanksgiving luncheons, Nov. 19 and Nov. 20.




Math Tutors Wanted

Help a Woodland child learn his or her multiplication and division facts. We are looking for volunteers to do weekly one-on-one tutoring with a 4th or 5th grade student to help them improve their math facts. Tutoring would happen on the same day each week during the child's lunch period. This is a chance to make a difference in the life of a child - mastering basic bath facts is a significant factor in a child's overall academic success. If you are interested, please contact Michelle Williams.






When the PTA gets involved, every child benefits,
but when you get involved,
the child who benefits most is your own!

Thank you for a successful fundraiser!


Due to the tremendous success of our Boosterthon Fun Run in February, 2009, the WECS PTA does not have to mount a major fundraiser this year!! That’s right! We don’t have to sell Sally Foster, or entertainment books, or anything else!! Thanks to everyone who supported the Fun Run with pledges. Enjoy your year off from fundraisers, but be ready to lend your support in the fall of 2010!!

And don’t forget – even though we are not having a major fundraiser, we still need to use our Publix cards and collect Box Tops!!


Easy Money for our school! For more information, see our Fundraisers page.
