**URGENT**

Please ensure you have completed your MPS Enrollment Annual Update. This is a requirement for NEW and EXISTING students each school year.

If we don't have a current & complete 2022-2023 registration, we will not have the ability to place your child in a classroom at Wheeler.

When you log in to ParentVue you will be able to click "check annual update status".

Classroom teachers will be emailing families with your child's classroom placement by

Monday, August 7th by 5pm.

Teacher assignments are based on many factors including academic need, a blending of students, and gender balance. This work is done as a large team during the early spring of the prior year. Following these considerations, placement is assigned. We have great teachers, supportive parents, and super kids. Please know much thought has been given to the placement of each child.

Open House/Back to School Night:

Tuesday, August 8th 5pm-6:30pm

We are also asking that you plan to attend the following time slots by the first letter of your last name. This is recommended, but not required if it doesn't work for your schedule. On Thursday, 8/10 only students will be entering the building, so if they need assistance, please plan to bring school supplies to Open House. This not only helps with parking, it allows better opportunities for teachers to welcome students and families.

Healthroom Info

Hey Wildcats! It is Ms. Myriah from the Health Room, and I am coming to you with some very important information in regards to medications; and other health related matters such as actions plans and meetings.

If you are wanting to drop off any medications for your student prior to school starting the schedule below indicates when you can do that. This is also when you can drop off any (updated) action plans for your student. If your student is going to have medications in the health room for their health condition (asthma, food allergy, seizure, and/or diabetes) we WILL NEED an action plan on file.

If you have a new student with any major health concerns (diabetic, seizure, etc.), please contact me to get a meeting scheduled. I will also be reaching out to the families of students who need an updated health care plan. If there has been any major changes to your student's heath please reach out to me as well to see if we need to schedule a meeting.

Lastly, I am so excited to see everyone back in the building as we take on another AMAZING school year!!!

Hours to drop off meds: Thursday, 8/3 All Day, Friday, 8/4 Afternoon, Anytime 8/7-8/9
