Updates for our week: We will have Early Release tomorrow, Friday, March 27. We will dismiss at 1:15. Please remember to have an adult at the bus stop for your K-2 child. Given the confusion with the make-up days, I wanted to remind you that all students will be out next Friday, April 3 – school will be closed. Today in the Friday folders you will be getting some information about our spring festival, the Baby Bengal Bash, which is our big, annual, family event. We have lots of fun activities planned for our families on the evening of April 24, and hope you will plan to attend. Please take a look at the flyers on different ways you can help out – cake walk, raffle ticket sales, and basket contributions are all different ways we could use your support. Please make sure that you are following us on Twitter for school live updates at #willowspringses, and always see our school website for the latest info: willowspringses.wcpss.net.

March message

Thank you so much for your patience throughout our crazy February weather – the safety of our students is of course, the county’s top priority. We will keep you abreast of make-up information, when it is all sorted out, but to clarify: We will not have an Early Release on Friday, March 6 as part of our make-up hours of instruction – school will be in session as a full day for tracks 1,3 and 4. We will not have school on Saturday, March 7; however. Willow Springs’ contributions to the Wake Up and Read Book Drive are coming along nicely. The county is trying to collect 150,000 books for children in our area. Please consider donating new or gently used books appropriate for children K-3 to our collection site through March 13. Our collection box is in the lobby. As a reminder, track one will track out after school tomorrow, March 6 and track 2 comes back on Monday, March 9.
