Principal's Message

Dear Parents,

 

Thank you to Andrea Slavet, Danielle Scheg, and all the lovely families who shared their heritage and delicious food with us Friday at Multicultural Night.  It was well attended and a delight to watch families talk, share recipes, and build community.

 

Congratulations to the following Murwood Fifth Graders who earned their first ROPES award last week:  Cameron A., Jacob B., Katelyn C., Mason G., Shealyn H., Eliza L., Rowen M., Kailani R., Sandra S., Zoe S., Noah S., and Deven S.

 

You are invited to Walnut Creek Intermediate for a 5th grade parent orientation evening on April 23rd at 7 pm in the WCI gym.  The presentation is for parents only and will be given by 6th grade teachers and administrators from WCI.  The talk will focus on a smooth transition for students to make their time successful at WCI.  


Thank you,

Carol Nenni
