🌟 Today we celebrate Custodian Appreciation Day! 🌟 Our custodians are the heart of our school—keeping our building safe, clean, and welcoming every single day. From early mornings to late evenings, they work behind the scenes to make sure students and staff have the best environment to learn and grow. 💙 Thank you for all you do, for your hard work, dedication, and care for our school family. We couldn’t do it without you!

Our students had a wonderful time at our Book Tasting event!
📚 Grades 1–5 sampled a variety of books and ended their “tasting” with a sweet treat.
🍪 Pre-K and Kindergarten students enjoyed a lively read-aloud of The Gingerbread Girl Goes Animal Crackers and were delighted with animal crackers to go along with the story.

It was a fun way to celebrate reading and spark excitement for books across all grade levels!

Thank you to our Media Specialist, Mrs. Fowler, for continuing to shine a light on literacy at WCPES!

📣 Reminder for Warrior Families Monday, September 22 will be an Asynchronous Learning Day.
Ms. Amerson's 4th graders explore Standard S4E2:
Develop a model to support an explanation of why the length of day and night changes throughout the year, with the learning target of "I am learning to model how the seasons change by Earth's rotation and orbit around the sun," and "I am learning how day and night are related to the Earth's tilt and rotation."

Using spheres, pins, and flashlights, students created models and demonstrated how the sun moves around the Earth. In groups, students then drew diagrams to support their demonstrations.

📚 September is National Literacy Month!
Our Media Specialist, Mrs. Fowler, is leading the charge in bringing awareness to literacy all month long with a variety of exciting events.
The first event, “Readers Make Leaders,” featured leaders from our community volunteering their time to read to WCPES students. Mrs. Griffin’s class especially enjoyed a visit from Mr. Wayne Amerson, McIntyre Police Chief, who shared a story with them.
What a wonderful way to show our students that strong readers truly make strong leaders!

📚✏️ Our students are becoming authors and editors! In Ms. Washington's class, they practiced peer review while writing their narratives.

👀 First, they read each other’s stories all the way through.
💡 Then, they shared what they loved most.
🔍 Next, they gave helpful feedback on characters, setting, and plot.
👏 Finally, they suggested ways to make the stories even stronger!

Learning to give and receive feedback is just as important as writing the story itself. Our Warriors are growing as writers every day! 💙💛 #WCPESWarriors #YoungAuthors

Today, Wilkinson County Schools joins the nation in remembering and honoring the lives lost on September 11, 2001. We also recognize the bravery of first responders, the strength of families, and the resilience of communities who carried our country forward.

We pause to reflect on the values of unity, service, and courage. These are reminders of the importance of standing together. May we never forget.
