Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving Break!

Reminder that the Holiday Concert is on Tuesday, December 3rd! The students have been working hard and practicing.
We will be selling flowers again this year. The money made from the sale will be used to help families in need. We will have some for sale at the first (K-2) concert and some for sale at the second (3-5) concert. While supplies last.

🦃🍂 Thanksgiving is around the corner, and we’re excited to share a special project for our Weiss students! Our teachers are inviting students to join a meaningful activity that promotes gratitude and community by helping others in need. This project aligns with our Social Studies curriculum under Citizens in Action and gives children a unique chance to show appreciation for their family and people in their lives. 💖
All proceeds from this project will go toward purchasing items for local families in need this Christmas season. 🎄 If you need more Turkey Grams, just let your student’s classroom teacher know!
Thank you for helping us make a difference!
-Mrs. Pidgeon💕

Reminder: Picture Retakes are Tomorrow (10/28/2024)
Hello Weiss Families,
This is a reminder that Fall Picture Retakes are scheduled for tomorrow, Monday, October 28th.
Only students whose families request a retake will have their pictures taken. If you previously purchased a picture package and would like a retake, please send the original picture package to school with your child. Students eligible for retakes include those who:
- Were absent on the original picture day,
- Have informed their teacher about wanting a retake,
- Notify the office about wanting a retake
- Bring their original picture package to school.
If you have any questions, feel free to call Mrs. Hunter at 734-379-7060.

We are so happy to have a Watch D.O.G. today!
Hello Families,
We want to inform you that our Weiss Wildcat Warrior Challenge has been rescheduled to November 14th. It will not take place tomorrow.
The decision to reschedule stems from the campaign starting later than we had anticipated, which could partly explain the current lower registration and fundraising totals. By extending the timeframe for registration and fundraising, we hope to better support our PTO in reaching its fundraising goals and ensuring a successful budget for this year.
A new volunteer link will be shared soon, so please keep an eye out for that. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to reach out to us at weisselementarypto@gmail.com.
Thank you for your understanding and support!
Best,
Weiss Elementary PTO

It's Autumn Break! See you back on Wednesday!

Today we kicked off our Peer-to-Peer program, linking students together for peer modeling and accepting neurodiversity. The upper elementary links met their peers today and wrote about good friendship traits.
