Dear West Running Brook Families:
It’s hard to believe we are already closing out September! We have had a very successful first month at WRB! Thanks to all for your continued support!
The PTA Back to School Bash is TONIGHT! Please join us for music and games on the back field. Food and refreshments will be available for purchase. Thank you to our wonderful PTSA for putting this together! More information can be found HERE! THIS IS NOT A DROP OFF EVENT!
Congratulations to this week’s Golden Bear winners: Ms. Pittman’s Red Period Class
All students participated nicely in classroom discussions, stayed focused and engaged, and are helpful to their classmates and teacher. Ms. Pittman reports that they are true models of CARES and just a joy to work with each day!
Other Reminders:
If you are dismissing your child near the end of the day, please park in the front of the building to avoid being stuck in the car pick up lane.
**Please drive slowly around the property.
With the new playground, students cross the driveway regularly.**
PickUp Patrol Update
Please make all dismissal changes before 1:15PM to ensure your child travels home in the appropriate manner.
When requesting your child to ride a different bus, please be explicit in your note as to who they are going home with (first and last name), address, etc. A bus pass issued by the office is necessary for a student to ride a different bus.
If your child is staying after for a club, please select student activity for the change and in notes list club and car pick up, extended day, etc. depending on your child’s plan after the club.
Pick Up Patrol can be used for dismissal plan changes as well as reporting student absences and tardies.
WRB CLUB UPDATES

YYC will have slots for 50 students. It is first come first serve and if you miss the cutoff, you will be placed on a waiting list for the next session.
Students DO NOT have to have any experience, but need their own yo-yo. Please see the sign up form for purchasing recommendations.
If a yo-yo needs to be borrowed due to financial reasons, we will certainly have some available but students are expected to return them (There will be a contract with expectations) when the club is over. Students are expected to practice at home.
Please reach out to jstowell@sau10.org with any questions or concerns.
Forms are due by Tuesday, October 1.
The following dates are yo-yo club meet-ups. Mark your calendar! 10/29, 11/5, 11/19, 12/3, 12/10, 12/17
Along with the newsletter, which is sent out each Friday and posted on the website, we will use Morning Meeting Notices to keep everyone up to date on all the happenings here at WRB. As the year progresses, more clubs and activities will be occurring regularly. Morning Meeting Notices will be shared with all students each morning. They can also be found by families on OUR WEBSITE under the resources tab.
Enjoy the weekend!
