Staff Favorite Things
PTSA has created a WWE Staff 'Favorite Things' list with birthdays, favorite foods, stores, etc. Check out the list HERE – it includes all teachers, AMPs teachers, administration and support staff.
Trash Free Tuesday
Thank you, WWE families for helping reduce food and trash waste on Tuesdays! Healthy Schools is noticing a difference in the cafe. If our WWE families replace one throw away item with a reusable one (bento box, reusable zip lock bags/water bottles/thermos, cloth napkin, etc.) and encourage our kiddos to bring home uneaten food to enjoy later (instead of throwing it away) – we will make a huge impact! Check out a cute segment that recently aired on a WWE News broadcast HERE by our very own Wolf Wellness Student Team explaining Trash Free Tuesday! (go to minute 2:41)
Tips to keep in mind while packing lunch on Tuesdays
Do include:
- Sandwiches in reusable containers
- Whole fruits without packaging
- Drinks in containers that can be reused, such as thermos
- Snacks purchased in bulk and brought in reusable containers
Don’t include:
- Individually wrapped snacks
- Plastic baggies that are not reusable - try bees wrap!
- Disposable forks and spoons
- Straws

New WWE Turf Installed!
BEFORE AFTER
Over Thanksgiving break, new Astroturf was installed on the west side of the playground! The area is now usable year-round without any issue of muddy or wet conditions. This completes PTSA’s final phase of the Outdoor Learning Environment project. Thank you, WWE families who helped, raise funds, and gave their time over the years to make this happen! WWE students are already loving it and many more students will enjoy it in the years to come!

Mileage Club - We walk (and run) all winter!
Despite the chilly temps recently, historically we have many nice weather days in January and February - which means Mileage Club takes place each Wednesday year-round! The kids love getting the chance to move their bodies mid-week and complete laps. We would love your help to monitor the course and keep our kids happy and safe. Sign-up HERE (hand warmers included)!
Mark you Calendar - more info coming soon!
