Wolf Canyon – Home of the Timberwolves

Goor Morning Wolf Pack Families,

Morning Arrival and Assembly:

Unfortunately, we will have to cancel the morning assembly, but look forward to being back out on the blacktop next week!

Gates will open at 8:00 for students that are eating breakfast.  We will have all other students enter the MPR beginning at 8:15.  At 8:40, we will do a staggered dismissal of 3rd-6^th grade students.  They will head down to class and line up outside of the classroom for an 8:45 start.  

TK-2 will remain in the MPR for teachers to pick up at 8:45.  

Dismissal:

If it is still wet outside, but not raining at the end of the day, we will proceed with our normal dismissal process.  If it is raining, we will follow the rainy-day dismissal schedule below…

TK and Kindergarten:  Bus riders will be walked down to the lunch area and wait either at the tables or in the MPR depending on the conditions. All other kindergartners will be picked up directly from their classrooms. We will open the K gate at approximately 1:25 to allow parents to head toward their child’s classroom.    

First through Sixth:  Bus riders will be walked down, or dismissed to the lunch area, and wait either at the tables or in the MPR depending on the conditions. Students who walk home, or who are picked up by car will be dismissed from their classroom at 1:45. For students whose parents pick them up in person, we will open the gates between 1:35 and 1:40  for them to head to their classroom. At 1:55, all students not picked can be brought to the front office.

Please note, that if your child’s classroom teacher uses a blog, email, or Class Dojo, they may also communicate additional information with you so please be on the lookout for that. 

Thank you,

Wolf Canyon

We are sad to announce that PTA will be postponing Movie Night and Campout due to rain in the forecast beginning Friday, 9/9 and into Saturday, 9/10.  Our plan is to move forward on October 21, 2022!  We are sorry for the inconvenience but we are looking forward to sharing this fun night with you very soon.  We will keep everyone informed as the date gets closer.

Thanks all,

What an amazing day! The students and staff had a blast during our annual APEX Fun Run! We want to thank everyone who came out today to volunteer, and watch the event! We can’t express how amazing it was to have parents back on campus for one of our school events!

We are excited to announce that we are doing an amazing job with our school fundraiser! We typically push this fundraiser the most because it is the only one of the year, and even though our overall enrollment is down by 125 students this year, we are almost level with what we raised last year! With this in mind, we wanted to send one last friendly reminder.

Tonight is the last night to receive donations for the event, so please feel free to reach out one last time to anyone that may be interested in donating. All donations registered by tomorrow morning will also still count toward the APEX prize levels!

In addition, the top five teams/classes will have an opportunity to throw nearly 300 water balloons at Mr. Lange tomorrow!

Here is a current breakdown of the top 5 teams:

1. Coach DeArmas $187.50 per lap
2. Coach Snyder $154.78 per lap
3. Coach Connary $133.53 per lap
4. Coach Lee/Lopez $122.20 per lap
5. Coach Booth $114.83 per lap

We have quite a few classrooms whose donation per lap is very close to the current top five. We truly

Good luck!

Wolf Canyon

Good Afternoon Wolf Canyon Families,

We know that last year parents were not allowed to attend the Fun Run.  However, this year, parents are more than welcome to come and watch the event. 

To watch the event they do not need to meet the strict volunteer requirements (TB, Background, etc.).  An event like the Fun Run is similar to Back to School Night in that parents can attend without additional background checks.  All visitors will come in through the main office and sign in. We look forward to seeing you here!

Just a reminder…

APEX Fund Run:

Our Fun Run is this Thursday! Below are the times for the event!

TK,K,1, Primary SDC: 9:00-9:45

2,3,4, Intermediate SDC: 10:00-10:45

5,6, Upper SDC: 11:00-11:45

Thank you,

Wolf Canyon

Time flies when you’re having fun! Today during our Apex visit we learned the 5th habit in our mission to discover the X-FACTOR, which is ORIGINAL! To be ORIGINAL means you’re the first version!  It means you are one of a kind!  There is only one YOU, and what you bring to the world matters! Our chant today reminds us to be proud of who we are: 

THIS INDIVIDUAL IS AN ORIGINAL!

Here is tonight’s challenge: 

The Biggest Jump!! The class to raise the most money tonight will get to MEGA PIE Kung Fu Kat and Smilin’ Kilyne!

Thanks!

Dear Families, 

Congratulations to Coach Masterson, whose class had the largest jump in pledges over the weekend! Her class will get a chance to slime the APEX leader and Mr. Lange tomorrow afternoon!

Event Day is almost in sight! Today the Apex team taught us habit #4 in our mission to discover the X-FACTOR, which is TALK ‘EM UP!  When we talk positively about ourselves it can give us the strength to keep going, the strength to overcome challenges we face. Encouraging others and highlighting their strengths can also bring out the best in them! We remember to use positive talk with ourselves and others with the chant:

TALK TALK TALK ‘EM UP!!   TALK TALK TALK ‘EM UP!!

Here is tonight’s challenge: 

The PLEDGE challenge! The class that gets the most students to get a pledge of ANY amount tonight, wins a pinata for their class!

APEX Fund Run:

Thank you!
