The
theme for the 2011-2012 school year for Whiteville Elementary School
is: "Bright Stars ... Bright Futures"
Song for this theme is.."Smile, it's a new day."
Whiteville Elementary School is back in school after a nice long winter break. Before last week’s homecoming basketball game, all 8th grade students who played basketball and/or softball and cheerleaders were recognized. The students of the middle grades selected a homecoming court to represent each grade of the middle school grades. Parents and/or guardians escorted their 8th grader to mid court as their name, the sport they participate in and their GPA. The crowd showed their thanks to the student and their parents for given the extra time to the school.
The students, faculty and staff are focused on the annual TCAP Writing Assessment for grades five and eight which is scheduled for February 1st. All students are working on their writing, especially our 5th and 8th graders who are ready to show everyone what great writers they are because they are Bright Stars with Bright Futures!. Wish these students good luck on the writing assessment next month.
We encourage parents to become involved with their child's or children's education. Whiteville Elementary School wants parents and other adults in the community to become partners with the staff, administrators, and teachers. Parents should keep in contact with their child's teacher(s) all through their child's education not just during the early years. The PTI Team Meeting is February 16th starting at 6:00p.m. The Kindergarten classes along with the sixth, seventh and eighth graders will present a short program, make sure to mark your calendars for this date, this is one PTI Team meeting you will not want to miss.
