To help make your holiday
shopping a bit easier, PTA has put together “Wish Stockings” for all the
teachers at Wilson! The “Wish Stockings” will be
hung in the main entrance of the school beginning December 2. Each teacher will
have their own “Wish Stocking” filled with ideas of items they need and/or want
for their classroom! If you find something from that stocking that you would
like to purchase for your child’s teacher this holiday season, simply take that
“wish” out of the stocking and you are ready to shop! Feel free to take as many
“wishes” as you would like. And don’t forget Wilson’s specialist teachers, they
do a lot for our kids too! We hope this will take some of
the stress out of your holiday shopping this season!
Thank you and we hope you have a fantastic Thanksgiving!
