Wilmington Manor Elementary School

The last day of school is Wednesday, June 4, 2008.

It is a regular day, as such, breakfast and lunch will be served.

Our talent show will be held that day.

K – 2 – 9:30

3 – 5 – 1:45

School reopens on August 20th.

Have a safe and relaxing summer!

Our last manor Excellence Assembly is scheduled for Monday, June 2nd.

K – 2 begins at 9:15

3 – 5 begins at 1:30

Students of the month for May will be recognized.

Also,  Accelerated reading certificates for students that have met benchmark goals will be distributed.

Because report cards will be mailed home, honor roll and perfect attendance recognition will not be ready in time for this assembly.  If we receive those certificates before school is dismissed for the summer, we will get those to students on the last day.  You can expect report cards to make their way home by June 6th (approximately).

Fitness day is this Friday.

Grade 3 – 5 begin at 9:00 Am

Grade K – 2 begin at 1:30

Remember to wear sneakers, wear appropriate gym type clothing, and bring sun tan lotion.

There are only a few yearbooks left.

If you want one, see Ms. Vanaman in room 16.

Available on a first come basis.

Cost – $13.00

Yearbooks will be distributed soon!

We hope that everyone enjoys this year’s edition. 

With the distribution of the yearbooks comes the traditional “autographing” by students.  Please be cautious if you choose to lend your yearbook to another student.  In the past, there have been instances of yearbooks being misplaced, lost, and even stolen.  Some students have even had messages written in their yearbooks that they did not want.  Once you have received YOUR yearbook, it is YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO KNOW WHERE IT IS AT ALL TIMES!  Books that are defaced, vandalized, misplaced, lost, or stolen WILL NOT BE REPLACED FOR FREE.  If copies remain for sale, additional books may be purchased through Ms. Vanaman.  REMEMBER:  IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO KNOW THE WHEREABOUTS OF YOUR YEARBOOK.

As the school year comes to a close, there are a few more activites planned that we wanted to make sure that everyone knew about.

Congratulations to Mrs. Keohane, our Librarian, who was selected as Wilmington Manor’s 2008 Teacher of the Year.

She was recognized at our May faculty meeting where her name was revealed on a plaque that hangs outside the main office.  She also received a personalized plaque recognizing this honor.

Our last school newsletter (The Flash) of the year will be going home sometime this week.  If you do not receive your copy, extras are available in the main office.  You can also call and request that a copy be sent home with your child.
