Dear Willett Families,

💡 Ask About Today’s Learning!

Be sure to ask your children about today’s cross-grade collaboration activities focused on innovate! Students had the opportunity to work together, share ideas, and think creatively with peers from different grade levels. It was wonderful to see their curiosity, teamwork, and problem-solving in action. 🚀

Dear Willett Students,

Starting next week (March 16th), we will be seeking out students who are interested in joining the Willett Kindness Club! The idea started with a few students who noticed a need for more kindness and empathy in our school. They wanted to start a club that would allow people to feel safe and included while also promoting positivity and acts of kindness.

We ask that any student interested complete a "kindness kid" form and return it to Ms. Fisk by Friday, March 20th. Students selected in grades 2-4 will collaborate on a new project once a month. For more information, please see the attached flyer.

Have a great weekend!

Ms. Fisk
