Principal's Message
Dear Murwood Families,

Thank you so much for your time and attention at Back to School Night.  Our teachers worked hard to prepare a clear overview of your child's educational plan for the year.  Thanks to Colin Wells for his leadership as PTA President. Please join PTA and support WCEF.  Our programs depend on you.
 
Many thanks to Linda Peterson who has volunteered to chair our Walking Club!  Without volunteers, we will lose the most popular program we have here at MW, so call the office and sign up now...once a week for an hour!!!  It promotes health for all our students and staff!

Thank you,
Carol Nenni
Murwood Principal
