Each week, teachers identify a student as the WOW student of the week. These students are highlighted for going above and beyond in some area. Teachers share the reason with the class. Each student gets a certificate, a coupon for a free donut from Donut Chain and has their picture shared in the flyer.
Note: If your student has dietary preferences that conflict with donuts, let me know and we have some alternatives.
Let's hear it for ...

Students worked very hard completing all of their state testing this week. Well done!
We have make up testing this week for students who still have testing to complete. We expect to be finished this week.
Yearbooks are a great keepsake from your child's year at Wagner. Note, 6th graders already receive a copy of the yearbook as part of their 6th grade experience!
Each year, PYLUSD comes together to honor one volunteer from each school. We are incredibly proud to honor our very own Stephanie West. Stephanie serves on PTA, supports the morning valet, is our computer teacher, and generally helps with pretty much everything she sees. She's a super doer and a super giver when it comes to her energy, heart, and ideas. The students absolutely love her and we are phenomenally lucky to have her as a part of our campus.
We did great with the Kids Heart Challenge! We had 100 students register for the Kids Heart Challenge and many learned hands only CPR and the signs of a stroke. All of our students learned about people with special hearts - hearts that need a little extra support to do the work expected. We had 15 students complete Finn's Mission online AND one of our classes earned a party for their participation
Congratulations to Mrs. Kiblinger's class! They'll enjoy a celebration together before the end of the year!
One of the strongest and most beautiful things about Wagner is our supportive and bonded community! Please consider volunteering for next year! No experience necessary and whatever time you are willing to give we are willing to have!
Congratulations and thank you to all of our Aladdin Jr. student cast members! The show was beautiful and a raging success! We are so proud of all of our students for being brave and coming together to create something beautiful. Thank you as well to our PTA, especially Mrs. Peterson for chairing theather this year, for supporting this endeavor and to Mrs. Hoffman for leading the way!
Sometimes the field trips come to us! A planeterium assembly came our way including our very own mini travel planeterium. Students learned about our place in the universe and what we see in the night sky.
The countdown continues!

Students have been learning about erosion and are putting their learning to a test. Students worked together to create conditions that would protect against wave erosion. How'd they do? They'll find out next week!
6th graders created their own data questions they could answer with each other and then created and analyzed dot plots of the data.
Students in fourth grade learn all about California history - including the mission period. Fourth graders visited Mission San Juan Capistrano and learned more about daily life on the mission, walked the actual grounds of the mission, and even took part in adobe brick making. Thank you PTA for sponsoring this field trip!
