Dear Families,
Thank you to the families who have completed the Walnut Square Feedback survey. Families, your feedback is important- the results of the survey are shared with Site Council, staff, and PTO to prioritize needs at Walnut Square. To complete the survey, please click here. Today is the last day to complete this survey. Thank you for your help!
As we prepare for next year, please let us know if your family is moving. This will help us prepare the necessary paperwork to help you register your child at a new school.
Book checkouts at the Walnut Square Library have stopped. We are collecting all books so they can be shelved. Please return all Walnut Square books to the library. Your help and support with this is greatly appreciated.
The warmer weather is here! Please remember to send your child to school with a water bottle. We have water bottle filling stations. We have been using over 100 cups a day and would like to conserve them! Thank you for your help with this!
In Walnut Square news this week, anchors Eden and Yaleezmar were hosts. Jace was our student who was interviewed! To view the broadcast, please click on this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iATBrWNuTGU&t=36s. Our next broadcast will be released on Monday, June 12th.
We are so excited for Field Day on Thursday, June 15th! To ensure all students have fun and are comfortable, sunblock, sneakers, hat/sunglasses, and a water bottle are the items your child will need! The PTO has purchased Walnut Square t-shirts for students and will pass them out to your child on Wednesday to wear to school for Field Day! Thank you to the parents who signed up to chaperone; please plan on arriving Thursday to Walnut Square at 1:15 to get your station assignment.
