Wingdale Elementary School

Dear Parents:

On behalf of the Wingdale Elementary School faculty and staff, it is truly my pleasure to extend a warm and heartfelt welcome to you as we begin the 2012 – 2013 school year.  I hope that your summer has been filled with fun family activities enjoyed at a leisurely place under beautiful, blue skies.  How quickly summer concludes and our thoughts turn to the beginning of another school year. September is the time when we reconnect with old friends and welcome new friends.

To those students and parents who are new we extend an especially warm welcome. We hope that you will quickly feel at home and become involved in the activities of our school through the PTA and your child’s classroom program.

As of this writing we have one addition to our faculty and staff:
             
    Mr. Jay Curtis- First Grade Teacher   

I am sure that she will do an outstanding job with our children.

The teachers will be available on September 4th between 1:30-2:30 p.m., if you and your child would like to visit their classroom.  September will be a busy month. Please attend our Back to School Nights. The teachers share valuable information with you.

Through the home-school connection it is possible to provide every child with an excellent education. Our curriculum is challenging, differentiated to meet the individual needs of students and aligned with the New York State Standards. Every teacher strives for student learning that is enduring and engaging. Please contact the teacher often.  Children benefit when the bond between home and school is strong.

I am always available to speak or meet with you.  If you are unable to contact me at school and the matter is pressing, I can be reached at home 860-210-1344 or at my personal e-mail- Catherinealv@msn.com.

On behalf of the entire faculty and staff at Wingdale Elementary School welcome to the new school year.

Sincerely,

Catherine Alvarez
Principal
