Message from Mrs. Sheppard
Dear Graham Families,
We have been having a fun time with Reading Month! Next week on Wednesday, we are doing a Dress for the Academy Awards day! I can't wait to see everyone's fancy outfits. On Friday next week, we will have a PJ day so we can watch the movie that correlates with our grade level book that we are reading. Dress in your PJs or your favorite comfy clothes.
Spring Break will begin on March 25th-29th. School will resume on April 1st.
Care Solace Article: Self-Harm Awareness Month
March is Self-Harm Awareness Month. If a student has been hurting themselves on purpose, the real hurt is inside. Self-harm is used to cope in the moment but can end up becoming a dangerous cycle. Here are some signs that your student is vulnerable and may be self-injuring:
Good Evening Wayne-Westland Families,
A solar eclipse will cross North America on Monday, April 8, 2024. Michigan is in the 95% eclipse zone, meaning that certain areas of the state will witness a near-total solar eclipse commencing around 2 p.m., with peak visibility expected after 3 p.m. We want to provide you with some important information about this celestial event and how it will impact our school day.
NOTE: Wayne-Westland Community Schools will have a full school day for all students on Monday, April 8, 2024. We will incorporate educational opportunities related to the solar eclipse into our curriculum to enhance our students' understanding of this phenomenon.
