Sunday, May 19


Happy Sunday, Families! In true Westbrook style, we are finishing the year with a bang! Our First Responders Day was absolutely amazing and there were so many of our parents participating! What a gift! I don't think I will surprise anyone when I say I think it will be even bigger next year! 

This image is funny because A) we are almost at the end of the school year and B) I will be on you about parking lot procedures next year, too!! 😂

Field Day: Field Day is this Wednesday! It is going to be so fun. This is not an event where parents can come watch, but you can definitely come help! There are a few spots left. 
Sign up here: Field Day Volunteers. 


Yearbooks: Our yearbook have arrived! There were not many orders but the good news is you can still order a yearbook. I will be sending an email on Tuesday with information about hoe to do that. If you did order one, your child will get their yearbook soon. We are dividing them up now. We have learned some lessons about sharing the ordering information but we are lucky to work with a company that allows additional order. 


PTC Board Nominations: Please don't hesitate to add your name to the list for our PTC board positions.

  Well, Hello March! I cannot believe March is upon us. The rest of the year is absolutely going to fly by. It is nuts! The kids have grown so much this year and made so many friends. It is going to be hard to part for summer, but I am not even going to think about that yet! There are too many things to do before we get there.  Read Across America Week: This is going to be a fun week. It is 'Read Across America Week' at Westbrook. We have dress up days and fun activities planned for the week. See the picture above for our dress up days. It is going to be a lot of fun!  Parenting Tips: One of the best things you can do for your child is to allow them to come up against a challenge and work through it. I know it may sound like I am repeating myself, but it is because we are seeing a trend in our students. Many of our students lack the coping skills to navigate through a tough situation. Of course, it is easier to avoid meltdowns and blow outs by preventing them for our ch...

Oh my goodness! We are heading into our last week of school. It is surreal. Just think for a moment, remember our first day of school? Doesn't that feel like yesterday? I can remember every second of that day and it definitely does not seem like very long ago. At the same time, I am already thinking about the first day of school next year.  This time of year is nuts. It is so busy I can't even keep track from one week to the next. I was laying in bed Saturday morning, wondering why my body felt like it had been hit by a truck, when I realized Field Day was last Wednesday! It seemed like at least a week ago. I even forgot to mention it in the ROCKstar Report. Our first field day was a huge success and that is in great part to all of you! Thank you to all of our parent volunteers who helped that morning. That is not a small job and we could not have done it without you.  Also, last week, our PTC spoiled us with all kinds of goodies. They have taken bargain shopping to another le...

  Happy Mother's Day to all of you Super Mom's out there!! I hope you are spoiled and get the opportunity to relax. However, being moms, I know better😉 I took a Mother's Day walk with Matty Maggiacomo this morning. (Where are my other Peloton Mommas out there??) And I cried. I didn't cry for any other reason than being a mom is so hard. We want what is best for our children and we want them to grow up to be awesome humans. Along the way, if you are like me, you doubt everything you do and wonder if you are doing it right. Here's to all of you who are doing the toughest job there is: Momming!!! And here is to all of you who support those strong mommas.  There are not words to express our gratitude for all of the spoiling you did this week. The teachers loved getting little things from the kids throughout the week. And you all went above and beyond with your donations for our staff room. It was unbelievable. THANK YOU💙💛  Calling all heroes!   Westbrook Communit...
