We are planning a very special event at our school next Monday, May 20th. The entire day will be devoted to celebrating environmental education! All grade levels are planning lessons with an environmental theme. We will also have naturalists from the Richardson Nature Center here teaching our students. Thanks to the WestWood PTC for providing the funding for the Richardson Naturalists and to our WestWood teachers for planning outdoor lessons for our first springtime Environmental Education Festival.
Your children will be spending the majority of their day OUTSIDE! Please watch the weather forecast and have them dress appropriately. We ask that all students wear athletic shoes for safety reasons. Students should also come to school with sunscreen on and may wear hats. WestWood cannot provide sunscreen, but a student can re-apply it themselves if they bring it to school. Students should not share sunscreen with others due to allergies to certain ingredients. You will also want to send a water bottle to school with your child(ren) that day.
We hope it will be a fun educational experience for all students and staff at WestWood and we look forward to our Environmental Education Festival on May 20th!
