Teacher Appreciation Week
~ Greetings from WBS~
This week we are celebrating national Teacher Appreciation Week at WBS. This is one of my favorite weeks of the school year. I cannot begin to say enough about the amazing professional staff here at WBS. Our teachers continue to inspire me through their hard work and dedication to our students. Our teachers go above and beyond each and every day to ensure that our students are learning and growing in a positive way!
Thanks to everyone for supporting our teacher breakfast scheduled for tomorrow morning 5/7. Our teachers are so grateful for your continued support and partnership.
I encourage you to take a minute to thank a teacher this week! Feel free to send in a note or a small treat to celebrate our exceptional teachers. I thank you in advance for your support of our staff.
Together we remain #WBStrong!
~Mrs. Hadfield, Principal
