Ag in the classroom fun!!! First grade learning about apples. Way to go Eagles!!!

Three more WJE students: Tyler Murray, Caydee Robbins, and Mariella Rodriguez-Perez were honored today for displaying KINDNESS to their classmates. Tyler has helped his classmates who are struggling to learn their addition facts. Caydee has helped a fellow student in need of assistance at dismissal. Mariella Rodriguez-Perez continues to help her classmates who struggle with classroom activities and seek out those who might need someone to play with at recess. Way to go Eagles!! We are all so proud of the KINDNESS you are showing your fellow classmates.

Parents/Guardians, I just wanted to send out a friendly reminder to all that next Wednesday and Thursday West Jay Elementary will be hosting Grandparents Day. Grandparents Day for grades K-3 will be held on Wednesday, Oct. 11th from 12:30-2:00 PM. Grandparents Day for grades 4-6 will be held on Friday, Oct. 13th from 12:30-2:00. Students in the Lifeskills class will participate in Grandparents Day with their push-in peers (please check with Lifeskills teacher if you are not sure.). Also, if grandparents wish to take their grandchildren home with them afterwards , we need have a note from parents/guardians that gives parental permission for them to leave with their grandparents. Once we receive the note, then grandparents may sign their grandchild out in the classroom. Thank you! We look forward to seeing everyone next week! Mr. D

Great message from Batman today!! He shared a positive message of hope and encouragement that students could relate to and understand. All students did a fantastic job of listening to this important message.

Dear WJE Families, With the boil order in for the city of Dunkirk still in effect, students will be unable to drink from our water fountains tomorrow (Monday, September 11th). I encourage all families to send their children to school with a bottle of water. This will allow students to have access to water throughout the school day. Students will be able to keep these bottles in their classrooms or at their desks. Thank you! Mr. Davis

Dear WJE Families, Tomorrow, August 24th, 2023, the weather forecast is calling for a heat index of 105 degrees. To help keep all Eagles safe and healthy we will be taking the steps: 1. Having gym and recess inside. 2. Monitoring student water intake and taking extra water breaks throughout the day. 3. Students may keep water bottles at their desks. I would also encourage each family to send a bottle of water to school with their child for easier access when they need a drink. Thank you for your time and consideration as we work to keep all WJE safe! Sincerely, Mr. D
