Mrs. Fritz's message
Dear Wonderful Wilmot Parents,
I hope this message finds you and your family healthy and enjoying the weekend. If you missed the message I sent on Friday, Wilmot is currently in outbreak status for a gastrointestinal illness. The number of confirmed cases of vomiting and diarrhea means that we must follow Jefferson County Public Health regulations for how soon students can return to school. Students may only return to school 72 hours after the last occurrence of vomiting or diarrhea. If a student returns prior to this time frame, we are required to send them home. I know that feels like a long time and we really appreciate your cooperation to help us stop the spread of this highly contagious illness.
Thank you to the many parents who answered the call for Watch Cats in the morning and afternoon! It makes such a difference when we have another adult ensuring the parking lot is safe while we welcome students in the morning or help them get safely and efficiently into cars during dismissal. Using the access code Wildcats, please follow these links to the April and May calendars to sign up for even one shift.
This week we have music performances on Thursday and a professional development day for teachers/no school for students on Friday, April 25th. The following Monday, April 28th, is our final assessment day. Using this link, Student Assessment Day Sign-up, please indicate which 2-hour block of time your child will attend. There is no bus or meal service on this day so please ensure your child has eaten breakfast or lunch and brings a snack. In addition, as I shared last week, we appreciate your support in ensuring all students remain at school for the entire 2-hour block and ask that you avoid early pick-ups.
Thank you for being a part of the Wilmot Wildcats family! I look forward to seeing you at school this week.

Subject: 🚀 Calling All Star Volunteers – Help Launch Our Spring Dance & Silent Auction into Orbit! 🌌
Hi Wildcat Families,
We’re over the moon to share that our annual Wilmot Spring Dance and Silent Auction is almost here! Mark your calendars for Friday, May 2, 2025, from 4:30 PM to 7:00 PM, and get ready for a night that's truly out of this world! 🪐✨
This school wide celebration is not only a blast for our students, but it also serves as an important fundraiser benefiting Wilmot. To ensure the evening is a stellar success, we need help from our amazing community of parents, grandparents, and guardians.
🛰️ Volunteer Details:
Most shifts are just 30 minutes—plenty of time to dance among the stars with your Wildcat(s)!
A few roles may run slightly longer, depending on the station.
If you're interested in helping with decorations, we’d love to have your cosmic creativity! Drop in anytime:
Thursday, May 1st – Set-up help from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM
Friday, May 2nd – All-day decorating help from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM
🪐 Whether you're helping decorate the galaxy, monitor a black hole bounce house (kidding… maybe), or clean up space debris (aka streamers), your support truly makes a difference.
🚀 Sign up here and join the mission:

The 1st Day School Supply Shop for 2025-2026 school year is ready.
Here is the link where parents can purchase their back to school supply boxes for the 2025-2026 school year: https://1stdayschoolsupplies.com/gs/19861
This is a one stop shop for all the needed school supplies (except teacher wish list items). A portion of each kit sold goes back to the PTA. Last year this effort raised a total of $518.80 back to the PTA so it's a great way to get your school supplies bought all at once and contribute to PTA fundraising efforts.

Do you plan to volunteer at Wilmot, chaperone one of our filed trips, and/or be a guest reader? Please take a moment to fill out the Jeffco Person of Interest and Disclosure forms below.
Both forms can be returned to Mrs. Allen in the main office. We also ask parents to please consider paying the $17.50 cost we incur for the background check.
If parents have completed a background check with other organizations, they may provide the office with those results instead of going through the POI process.
