A Bit of Housekeeping!

Below are a few reminders to get some housekeeping items out of the way...

• Have you filled out your child's transportation for this year? Please complete this form no later than August 6 (click here).   
  ***If your child has a Kindergarten sibling, and you attended the Kindergarten screening on July 28th or 29th, we already have your transportation information. Please do not submit this form again.   

• Here is our supply list for first grade. We will have a drop box for the $12 fee at Welcome to Wellington day. In first grade, we DO NOT do community supplies. Things to put your child's name on are: scissors, markers, pencil box, clipboard, colored pencils and ear buds. The rest will be sorted out.

• Welcome to Wellington day will be on 8/6 from  6-8pm. This will be a drop-in event so you are welcome to come anytime. For this event, there will be 7 stations to complete around the room. While you are busy filling out the appropriate paperwork at each station, your child can unpack and sort their school supplies. ***To save you some time on this "hectic" night you could go ahead and set up your child's pencil box for them prior to coming in. 

Here is what should be inside each box:
2 sharpened pencils
1 pink eraser
2 glue sticks
1 pair of scissors 
1 box of crayons
1 highlighter
Their box can go in their cubby once it's complete (ear buds, clip board, colored pencils and markers all stay on their desk).

• Attention Wellington Parents!! We would love to have as many as possible volunteer at Wellington!! In order to do so, we need you to complete the volunteer information that can be accessed through this link. Sometimes it takes a little while for this to be approved, so the sooner you can apply the sooner you can join the Wellington team!! We are all very excited about our future work together!! 

• In an effort to save trees, I am currently in the process of converting all my classroom forms into Google Docs. This way you are able to just click on a link and answer questions electronically. My hope is that this will be more convenient for you! Here is the blog permission slip link: Click Here! Please don’t hesitate to let me know if you are having trouble accessing any of the documents that I send.
