🌸💐 Spreading Kindness, One Flower at a Time!
Today, the PWES Conservation Club, led by Pam Vanderwende and parent volunteers, celebrated Petal It Forward, a global initiative focused on spreading kindness and brightening someone's day! This was funded by individuals and they distributed about 400 flowers to all staff at PWES, ECEC, WMS, and SCOPE. Club members shared flowers and heartfelt notes with staff, reminding them just how much they are appreciated and loved.
Students and parent volunteers helped assemble the flowers, and we even had enough to give to the bus drivers at PWES.
What a beautiful example of kindness and the caring spirit of our Built Blue community!
Just a reminder that there is No School for Students today, October 9, 2026. Les recordamos que hoy, 9 de octubre de 2026, no hay clases para los estudiantes.

Woodbridge Early Childhood Education Center kicked off its reading incentive program with a fun-filled Fall Reading Rally designed to get students excited about reading and celebrate their progress throughout the school year.
Through the program, students can earn Brag Tags to proudly display on their bookbags. Students receive Brag Tags for reaching new levels in the reading program, as well as for reading books both in the classroom and at home.
The Fall Reading Rally brought plenty of excitement to the school, including grade-level “Hungry Hungry Hippos” competitions that had students and staff cheering on their classmates.
Students also welcomed special Secret Readers, including Assistant Principal Brittany Thornton, Constable Weldon Heyward, and Counselor Taylor Richey, who helped make reading an exciting part of the celebration.
The rally was a great way to launch a year of reading at ECEC while encouraging students to build their skills, develop confidence, and discover the joy of books. As students continue working toward their reading goals throughout the year, their growing collections of Brag Tags will serve as a fun reminder of their hard work and accomplishments.
At ECEC, every page turned is another step toward becoming a stronger reader!

What to Expect on Picture Day
1️⃣ Ordering online?
When an order is placed online, the parent/guardian will receive a camera pass via email. The camera pass can be printed and brought to school on Picture Day. The photographer will photograph the camera pass along with the student.
2️⃣ No printer? No problem!
If your student is unable to print their camera pass, don’t worry! The photography team will manually match the student with their order during the production process.
3️⃣ Missed the deadline?
Parents/guardians may place an order online up to 24 hours after Picture Day. After that time, online ordering may close so the imaging team can pull and match all orders with the students photographed.
4️⃣ When pictures arrive…
Students who purchased a picture package will receive their prepaid package at school. Students who were photographed but did not purchase a package will receive a proof (PX) of their picture.
5️⃣ A second chance to order!
Proof packages provide families with another opportunity to purchase prints. Please note that second-chance orders are subject to shipping and handling costs of up to $8.50 and will be shipped directly to your home.
📅 Picture Day: Monday, September 14
We’ll send another reminder as Picture Day gets closer!
We can’t wait to see all of our Blue Raiders looking their best in uniform! 💙📸
