As we start to think about the end of this school year and Open House, it is a good time to reflect on the wonderful year we have had at Wilbur Charter. This year, Wilbur Charter was lucky to have: Confident, intelligent students who always try their best Faculty who do their best to teach our students so they are college and career ready Aides and office staff who support our students in so many ways A custodial staff who keeps our school looking fabulous Parents who help to sustain our wonderful programs And of course, the best students in the world! Please come to visit your child s classroom on Thursday, May 7, 2015 for Open House. Every classroom will be open from 6:00 7:30 PM to ensure parents have time to see their child s work over the course of this year. Please note that this is not a time for individual conferences with our teachers or a discussion about class placement for next year! In addition, due to the amount of children that night, there will be no parking on the yard. Thank you for your ongoing support. Deborah Plat, Principal Double-Parking Drivers Parents, please remember that the front of the school is not a drop off zone for our students. Too many parents are double parking or letting students out on the opposite side of the street. This is an accident waiting to happen! Also, too many parents are double and triple parking in the kinder area, and parking along the red curbs. Please follow the traffic rules at all times for the safety of our students, parents, and staff members! In addition, our kinder teachers park over by the kinder yard due to the small faculty parking lot please do not take their spots! Friends of Wilbur Thanks to FOW for an amazing time at the recent Spring Fling Carnival and Auction. Everyone had a wonderful time! Friends of Wilbur is still tallying up the proceeds; however, all proceeds raised benefit our students and faculty for the upcoming school year. START OF THE SCHOOL YEAR 2015-2016 Please mark your calendars for Tuesday, August 18, 2015; our first day of school. Dismissal will be at 1:29 PM, and we expect every student to be here! Clothes/Lunch Boxes in Lost and Found Please check the Lost and Found, located by the two story building, for any clothes or lunch boxes your child or children may have left at school.
