Kindergarten and first-grade students dance to instrumental music, pretending to rake leaves and falling to the ground to do snow angels on the floor of the dance studio. 

The dance class is part of the informal education program being presented to students at Columbus City Schools' Indianola Informal K-8 School.

We want to hear from you!

The Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion (DEI) committee would love input from you! Just fill out this quick survey or contact us at WickliffeDEI@gmail.com. Also consider joining us at our monthly meetings the third Thursday of every month (except December) at 5:30 at Wickliffe - the next meeting is Thursday, November 17, at Wickliffe. Join us!

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!

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.
