The Wagner Friday Family Flyer

Welcome to the Wagner Friday Family Flyer! Each week, this flyer will come out with information about upcoming events, school information, wildcats of the week, campus highlights and more. There's also helpful links at the bottom. Go, Wildcats!

Check Out These Wildcats of the Week!

Each week teachers highlight one student in their class who is exemplifying one or more of the wildcat ways. Each student has their name announced and picture shown in our weekly video assembly, receives a certificate, gets a ticket for a free donut from Donut Chain (alternatives available if allergies!), and has their picture shared in the Wagner Friday Family Flyer. Let's hear it for these Wildcats of the Week!

We had another great attendance week! Thank you for bringing your children to Wagner! Can you believe on Tuesday we had only nine students absent on campus? That's almost all of our students here. Incredible!

Next week is expected to be very hot. Please make sure your students know to take off jackets, drink water, and make sure their water bottles are labeled. Thank you!

Now seeking - CANDY!

Our FREE family event - Trunk or Treat - is coming up on October 23rd. We're seeking bags of individually wrapped candy to hand out at the event. Please write your child's teacher's name on the bag. The class that brings in the most candy gets a prize!

There will be a bin at the front gate every morning.
