Volunteering Is A Gift From The Heart:
May Watts School staff will be holding their annual Volunteer Appreciation Day for any parent or guardian who has worked at May Watts School as a volunteer helping us throughout the school year.
The theme this year is, "Volunteering is a Gift from the Heart!"

If you have volunteered at any time during the current school year, please feel free to stop by the school. We will be holding our event in the Multi-Purpose Room. Please sign in and put on a name tag and come down to the Multi-Purpose Room for a fun-filled event!

If you are planning on taking your child at the end of the tea, you will be required to inform the office of this when you sign in for the Tea and sign your child out prior to the end of the day.

PLEASE REMEMBER – THERE IS NO PARKING IN THE FRONT CIRCLE DRIVEWAY OF THE SCHOOL. This must remain free of cars at all times for emergency vehicles and buses only. Please park on Whispering Hills Drive or on surrounding streets and do not pull in the driveway.

We hope to see you on Monday, May 6 at 2:00 p.m. to 3:30 p.m.

Jump Rope for Heart: All students will be participating in a school wide jump rope event on Thursday, May 9th. Pledges are collected online and in person before the event. The money raised goes to fund heart research and education.

From the Library: Remember to have your child log in his/her minutes for reading. They need to go to Reading Stars on the May Watts website. This month, the students are reading to try to earn a Joliet Slammers ticket for reading 360 minutes. The Kane County Cougars tickets will be distributed the first week of May.

Box Tops for Education: Thank you for taking the time to clip and submit Box Tops. The money we get for the Box Tops goes directly back to the school. Please continue to save Box Tops and send them with your child to school. Remember to put your student's name and class on your submission.

Have a great week!
