🌟 Congratulations to Our Teacher of the Year and School Related Employee of the Year! 🌟

We are proud to announce our Teacher of the Year, Miss Taryn Little – our amazing 3rd Grade Team Leader! 🎉 Over the past three years, she has played a vital role in supporting the increase of math proficiency at Fred Wild. Beyond her classroom, she steps up to support daycare when needed and is truly an asset to our entire Wildcat community. 🐾💙

Our School Related Employee of the Year, Ms. Tracy Willingham, is a dedicated Instructional Paraprofessional in one of our IND/VE units. 👏 She plays a critical role in ensuring daily routines, procedures, and learning environments run smoothly, making a lasting impact on our students’ success each day.

We are so proud of these two incredible ladies for their hard work, leadership, and commitment to our Wildcats. 💙🐾

Thank you to all the families who have already participated in our SchoolStore program! We are on our way to reaching our goal, but we need everyone's help to make sure our teachers get the essential tools they need to help our students succeed.

If your family has not participated, there's still time! This safe and easy program is 100% online so there is no face-to-face selling, collecting money, or delivering products. Your child will receive a prize just for participating, and more prizes will be awarded when goals are reached.

Please help now. It really will make a difference.

Go to https://www.schoolstore.net/sid.t?0000143908 to show our valued teachers your support.

Family participation is the key to our success, and we are counting on you!

🌟 September’s Word of the Month: CITIZENSHIP 🌟
Helping my neighbor, community, and nation.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Tips for Parents:
➡️ Teach Responsibility at Home – Give age-appropriate chores and explain their importance. Example: “You’re helping the whole family by feeding the dog. That’s what good citizens do – they help others.”

➡️ Model Respect and Kindness – Kids learn by watching! Show respect in your words and actions, especially when talking about others. Try saying: “Even if we disagree, we still treat people kindly.”

➡️ Describe a Time – Ask your child to share a time when they helped others or did something positive for the school or community. Examples: welcoming a new student, helping with dinner, or donating books and toys.

💙 Let’s work together to build responsible, kind, and respectful citizens at home and in our community!
