 Winter Tours Start February 17th SCHOOL TOURS Please be prompt. Wed, Feb. 17, 9:45am Wed, March 19, 9:45am Wed, April14, 9:45am Wed, May 19, 9:45am Field Foundation Grants Us! Waters thanks the Field Foundation of Illinois for accepting our proposal to help sustain our Music Program. They granted us $15,000! School Grounds Coffee Cart Dawn Guerra, parents at Waters School, has started a Coffee Cart Business in which her sole intention is to make money for Waters School. The cart is called School Grounds. Hot chocolate is $1.00, coffee is $1.50. However: Bring your own cup or mug and coffee will always be a buck. Parents are so enthused that they are baking goods to also be sold at the cart. The baked goods are donated and all of those proceeds will go to Waters. Make sure you stop by for a cup or a treat! Dawn is there before and after school every day, although she'll be testing out winter to see what makes sense during those months. Good luck to her! PreK Applications The PreK application process has started. Note changes in priorities this year: TBPK: First come first served, with in-district being the prioritized category. PreK for All: In the event that the state budget grants Chicago this program next year (we almost lost it this year), at-risk 4 and 3 year olds get priority. |
