Tomorrow, Monday October 23^rd, our 4^th and 5^th graders will be taking a Field Trip to Kersey Valley. Our SAS clubs for Monday are Tiny Taste Buds and Sign Language.

 Wednesday is Wear Red Day. This will serve as a reminder to live Bully and Drug Free lives.

Our SAS Clubs for Wednesday are Revamp Contemporary Dance and Fairy Tales.

This Friday, our 3^rd and 5^th Graders will be taking a Math Interim Assessment. Information from this assessment helps teacher better understand how to support our Washingtonians meet grade level expectations.

 On Friday students are encouraged to dress up like their favorite superhero or wear a superhero t-shirt. This is to remind us that real heroes are not bullies and are drug free.

Also, on Friday, our Pre-K and Kindergarten Students will be taking a field trip to the Greensboro Children’s Museum Garden.

 Your weekly Health and Wellness Tip for this week is: School, sports, and social media can all be sources of stress and anxiety for your child. Monitor their social media use and keep the communication lines open so you can identify bullying or other sources of stress or anxiety at school.

Looking ahead, October 30^th will be fall individual picture day and October 31^st will be dress as your favorite Book Character Day.
