Dear Waters Families,
 
This week we welcomed the Chinese New Year with our parade.  Thank you to all staff and students who participated in this annual cultural and educational event   This year we celebrate the pig. The excitement and positive energy was felt throughout the corridors!  Thank you Ms. Vecchioni for inspiring the students. Their display of artwork was a welcome sight.


Thank you again for the countless volunteers who helped not only to hang the first semester art show but also who helped to carefully remove it.  You are greatly appreciated!


On Tuesday, we hosted a parent meeting to share our plan for our middle school curriculum needs and to provide some resources so families can begin the healing process.     We want to work together as a community to help one another so we can support the well being of every student. I have attached some resources for you to use as needed. (Thank you to Erica Smith for compiling this extensive list.)  

I am also working to provide families another opportunity to meet together to work through the many raw emotions that we are all feeling. I will update you as soon as I have a confirmed date.  


Please know that I, along with my staff, appreciate you and all of the support that you have given us during this very difficult time.  Your positive messages have been encouraging for all of us.


Our middle schoolers thank everyone for the support you have given to the photo booth and the Valentine’s Dance last week.  We were able to raised just around $2000. As a reminder, all funds will go to help reduce the cost of the annual 8th grade class trip.  ​

Our basketball season is winding down but there is still time to catch a game!  Please refer to the school calendar to see what games you might be able to attend.

As always, please feel free to contact me at tmkipp@cps.edu with any questions that you may have.

Sincerely,
 
Ms. Kipp
School Principal
