Please note the following message regarding MLK Day – MLK Jr. Day of Service at Wheeling Country Day School embodies the spirit of community and action, inspiring students to make a difference in the lives of others. As Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. said, “Life’s most persistent and urgent question is: ‘What are you doing for others?'” This day reminds us that even the youngest among us can contribute meaningfully to building a better world.
As stated above, we usually do a day of community service in celebration of MLK Day. 8th Grade’s day is still being decided, so we will let you know ASAP what we end up deciding. In the past, we’ve gone to the House of Carpenter or we’ve baked goods for service personnel. We will keep you posted.
As a reminder, we suggest labeling all winter gear with your child’s name in case it finds its way to the lost and found. For snow, we are asking that if your child would like to play in it, they wear snow pants or a snowsuit, coat, gloves, and boots. It can be brought packed so that they may still have warm and nonwet clothes to wear for the rest of the day. If we are having a sled riding day, a message will be sent out through Talking Points the day before to let you know.
We’re glad to have the kids back!
