Queridas familias,

Thank you to all of the families who attended Que Pasa on Tuesday May 7. We had an amazing performance, and we were proud to celebrate the Spanish Bilingual program across the CBE.

Staffing Updates

It is with mixed feelings, that we announce that our Assistant Principal, Liz Styan, has accepted a new position as the Assistant Principal at Belvedere Parkway School for the next school year. We wish her all the best in her new adventure!

Logo Update

We are happy to share that we have three options for our logo update. We will hold a vote on May 15, where students will vote for one of the 3 options. The winner of the student vote, will then become our new logo for WO Mitchell School.

WI FI Update

The CBE will be updating the Wi-Fi at the school on May 15, therefore we will not have Wi-Fi connection over the day.  This update will limit our capability to access email. If you have an emergent issue that needs to be addressed, please call the school’s office. 

Volunteer Tea

Save the date! Our first Post Covid Volunteer Tea will take place on May 22 at 2 PM.  Parents will receive invitations from students today and are asked to complete an RSVP form so that we can plan accordingly.

Extra Clothing

As we venture into Spring, rain (and snow) is coming down more often.  Please make sure that you pack some extra clothing if your child gets wet, especially socks. 

Lunchroom and Field Trips Fees

Parents, please be aware that the noon supervision registration is open. If your student stays at school over the lunch program, please register at MyCBE. As well, all school-based fees will be populated in this portal as events happen. Please take note of the fees to pay them in a timely manner. 

Fun Lunches

The next Fun Lunch will take place on May 13 from Mucho Burrito.  

WO Mitchell School Council 

WO Council helps connect parents to the school and provides additional learning opportunities for all students. There are many ways to get involved that do not require you to hold a position on council. If you would like more information about getting connected or volunteer opportunities, please send an email to womparents@gmail.com  The next meeting will be taking place on May 21 at 7 PM.  This will be a hybrid meeting in person and via Microsoft Teams. The grade 1 team will be presenting during this meeting.

With gratitude,

Erick Noriega,

Principal
