Kindergarten families, tomorrow is our character parade at 10:00 am in the front circle. Students should come dressed in their costumes ready to join the parade. Parents can come to watch the parade as well. It would be great if you can make it!

Kindergarten students are enjoying October with a Pink Out day for Breast Cancer, World Cultures Day, and lots of learning!







For the month of October, all teachers and staff will be looking for students that demonstrate positivity.
On Wednesday, 10/25 one student from each grade was awarded the Golden Paw. Congratulations to our winners!

Today Whitehall Elementary celebrated World Cultures Day and this year's theme was Everybody Bakes Bread. Teachers and families contributed various kinds of bread from all over the world for the students to taste. Our goal was to focus on similarities between the world cultures, to learn about traditions, and to have fun together. Our students participated in live performances, and virtual presentations.
