We’re hosting a Scholastic Book Fair this week! Your child will be visiting the fair with their class. You will have the option to purchase books from the fair - all instructions will be sent home with your child after they visit the fair.

We’re also open for grown ups to visit after school from 3-6pm on Thursday December 1 and after the Literacy Night until 8pm.

We’re still in need of volunteers for some time slots, especially the after school time on December 1. Sign up below- it’s fun and the kids love it!

DEI discussions

Reserve or buy the book now! More details coming soon.

Guess who's back? Coffee Cart is back! 

10/24/2022 2:52 pm

Cooler weather calls for hot coffee, tea, and treats for our dedicated Wickliffe staff. One of the core offerings of the Staff Appreciation Committee is the Coffee Cart. We make coffee and tea, gather treats and snacks, and then travel throughout the school to share with all staff. It’s a small but important way to show our educators our immense appreciation for all they do (and help them sneak in a little caffeine!). 

The coffee cart is offered on Wednesdays from 7:45 a.m. - 9:15 a.m. and we are in search of volunteers to help with a morning shift (making coffee, stocking the cart, and walking it around to the classrooms). Can’t join us in person? You can also support by making an early morning donut run. Lots of ways to get involved! Contact Marjie.Bland@gmail.com if you’re interested in helping!

Interior design expertise wanted! 

10/24/2022 2:51 pm

Do you have an eye for design? A knack for making spaces more inviting, cozy, or exciting? The Wickliffe PTO Staff Appreciation Committee would like to spruce up the teacher’s lounge, and we could use your help! Thanks to all who have donated supplies and other items, and we’re now well on our way to making this space as special as our amazing Wickliffe staff. We just need that extra support from you! A volunteer with expertise in interior design can support by providing guidance on the placement of items, new items to purchase or request, and other general design best practices you might be willing to share. This is an opportunity to give back to the school using your expertise and on your schedule! 

Interested, reaching out to Marjie.Bland@gmail.com for more information.
