Great tips for transition back to school from Care Solace - remember, all district families can access Care Solace services from the school's website (upper right corner of the website from your computer) or the top of the website from your smartphone.
WCCS Elementary Families: This afternoon, your child's teacher will be sending home some homework for you! It is an emergency contact information sheet. It contains phone numbers/emails/addresses of parents/guardians and emergency contacts you provided when you enrolled your child. Please check this information to make sure it is current and up-to-date and return to school as soon as you can. Please note: Some teachers have already sent this information home prior to this message and you may have already received this document. If so, we appreciate your completing this important task.
RECESS! The mild fall temps are perfect for outdoor recess time. For WC Eaglets in the elementary school, playtime uses some extra energy, increases concentration, allows for free play and socializing and clears the brain. Students have an opportunity to build friendships and breathe the fresh outdoor air. Under the watchful eye of their teachers, this play becomes as much a part of their learning day as their classroom activities.
September is Suicide Prevention and Awareness. Remember, that families can access the Care Solace service at any time to get help finding services. The link is located at the top right corner of the schools website if you are looking from a browser or at the very time of the website from your smartphone. If you have immediate emergency concerns, please call 911 or use the Safe Schools hotline located in the same place on the school’s website and also on the school’s App.

2 days to go! Happy Labor Day! Do you know the roots of Labor Day? Labor Day is an annual celebration of the social and economic achievements of American workers. The holiday is rooted in the late nineteenth century, when labor activists pushed for a federal holiday to recognize the many contributions workers have made to America’s strength, prosperity, and well-being.
