School wide Student Leadership Positions

October 2024

Dear Parents:

We have partnered with the March of Dimes to have our annual Wonder Walk on Thursday, October 31st to raise funds to care for babies born prematurely.

Donation Link: http://www.marchforbabies.org/team/PS64Q

Students who raise funds are invited to come to school dressed in a costume or to wear black and orange clothing.

For safety purposes, we will not allow the following:

NO costumes with masks or hoods covering the eyes.
NO swords, wands, or any other item which can cause injury.

For our Wonder Walk we will have a school-wide parade around the block. 3K & PreK will walk around the large school yard. Parents are more than welcome to come and watch our parade! PLEASE, we ask that parents stay on the other side of the street while we are walking. Every class will walk around the entire school block twice, so you will have a lot of opportunities to see your child.

Grades 3, 4, 5: 8:30 - 9:00am

Grades 3K, PreK, K, 1, and 2: 9:30 -10:00am

Route: We will start at the gates in our large school yard, walk up to the corner of 82nd and 97th avenue, and keep making rights down to 101st Ave and back up 83rd Street into the school yard.

We will only walk on the sidewalk around our school, we do not cross any streets.

In the event of inclement weather, we will have an indoor parade for students only.

If you do NOT want your child to participate in this event, please send a letter to notify your child’s teacher. We will have your child participate in an alternate activity.

We look forward to having a successful celebration.
