Good evening Welby Way families,
I hope your weekend has been pleasant and relaxing with the much welcomed rain. I truly want to thank the families who have donated art supplies (crayons, art paper, markers, and small scissors) to the main office. These donations are going directly to one of our very own Welby Way parents who lost her Palisades Recreational Center that she runs. All donated supplies will support the children who have been relocated to recreate their art. Your generosity and kindness is greatly appreciated.
This Week:
Monday: We will have our next Honor's Awards assembly on Monday as Mrs. Anderson's class acknowledges Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. with a heartfelt presentation. If your child is receiving an award your child's teacher has notified you and the specific times.
Tuesday: At 8:30 am on Tuesday we will have our 4th and 5th grade Final Spelling Bee to determine our Scripps Spelling Bee finalist. I wish the students the best of luck and want to give a huge congratulations to the spelling bee winners and participants from this week's spelling bee. All the students were so brave, confident, and did an incredible job. I am so very proud of them all.
Thursday: On Thursday at 8:30 am I will have our next Coffee with the Principal, where you will hear about our LA Unified 2025: We Are One Campaign. This is an excellent opportunity for you to learn more about how we will continue to provide a welcoming and safe learning environment for our school community.
Welby Way Yearbook Cover Contest: It is that time of year again as we create and prepare for our annual Welby Way yearbook. Is your child an artist and loves drawing and creating, now is their time as Yearbook Cover Contest is about to begin! I can't wait to see all the submissions and a flyer is attached with more information. If your child is interested, please be sure they submit their art prior to the Feb. 14th deadline.
Future Dates: Reminder there will be no school on Monday, February 20th in honor of President's Day.
I hope you all have a wonderful remainder of the weekend and evening and stay safe and well. Thank you for the gift of your child and continued partnership. This is all for now.
Your Welby Way Principal,
Mrs. DaCorsi
