Dear Waggoner Families and Community,

I hope all of you had a wonderful holiday season. It was nice to spend some quality time with friendsand family, but I have to admit, it is also nice to be back at work. I enjoy being at school with your children and watching them grow academically and socially throughout the school year.

The Waggoner staff and students would like to thank our parents and community members for their generous tax credit donations to help support our school. We received over $44,000 in tax credit funds to use for extracurricular activities. We have specific rules and regulations determined by the state department on how to spend the money. Site Council uses theses guidelines to help them determine what activities and programs best support our students’ needs. Thank you for your generous donations to our school even in these unstable economic times.

Parent teacher conferences for the spring semester begin at the end of this month. Please make every effort to meet with your child’s teacher to discuss their progress. Communication between home and school is the key to having a successful school year. If you have specific questions for your classroom teacher, jot them down before the conference begins so you don’t forget to ask any questions you may have regarding your child’s progress.

I look forward to seeing you at the Friendship Dinner, Art Fair and the Science Fair this month!

Respectfully,

Lisa Gibson
