Washburn School Toy Drive Announcement
We are also kindly requesting any spare Christmas lights you may lend us for our Friday, November 30 activity called "ENCENDIDO NAVIDEÑO". It will help us light up our school at 6:00 pm with the holiday spirit while we celebrate the upcoming winter holidays and our Puerto Rican culture with food and performances from our students!

We have a criteria for evaluating students that includes voting from all staff and faculty members in a rubric that includes observations for each student, classroom behavior, values outside the classroom, outstanding social factors with peers, and their positive impact to our overall community. The teachers who vote and nominate fill out the rubric anonymously . It means that all faculty members pick the winner without exactly knowing who is the outstanding student at Washburn School in each month, thus promoting a fair selection that includes everyones feedback!

Si tienen decoraciones navideñas que nos puedan prestar para la actividad del viernes, te lo agradeceremos. Favor de dejar las decoraciones en la oficina con la Sra. Jennifer Piazza con el nombre de usted y de su hijo/a. (Lo estaremos usando para el ENCENDIDO NAVIDEÑO)
