We are in the single digits! As of today, there are 9 days of school left! There are lots of fun activities (for the staff and students) going on this week.
Just a couple things to acknowledge before we get into the weekly news:- The Black Gold Transportation department sent out a text message/phone call informing parents of the new busing fee for the 2015-2016 school year. For a full explanation of what fee applies to you and your child, please visit our website at wps.blackgold.ca. Under the Parents tab, click on Transportation.
To pay online, parents will need a PowerSchool account. For those who do not have a PowerSchool account set up, you will need your child(ren)'s unique Access ID & Password to do so. This information can be provided by the office upon request, but because of high demand, it may take a couple days to get sent home. Thank you for your understanding!
- If there are any families of Willow Park that would like to help with the silent auction for Kayden Peters, please contact Mrs. Marcy Wrzaskala or Mrs. Susan Marshall at the school for more information. The office will do their best to get your messages to them as soon as possible.
