Dear Wedgwood Families,
We have some very talented children in our community! I will not be able to name them
all, but wanted to share with you some of the events that I had the honor of being
informed of and in a couple of cases attend.
- Last Saturday at Dunlap Elementary Allison Gu (3rd Grade) was awarded a silver level recognition for the artwork she did for 2010 Neighbor Appreciation Day. Her family and I were proud as we watched her receive this recognition from Mayor McGinn and Councilmember Mike O’Brien.
- Last week my son Apollo and I watched a Wedgwood Boys Basketball team Kale, James, Paul, Mason, Kurt, Leo) exhibit their amazing skills at a Ravenna Eckstein Community Center game. It was great to not only see their ball handling skills, but their team work and sportsmanship.
- Many of you may have also seen Ian Whiton’s (4th grade) picture and article in the January 9th Seattle Times for his accomplishments in the International Pokémon World Tournaments.
This is just a small sample of the accomplishments that our children are achieving out of
school. I think it is important that we are able to showcase all are children do, not only in
school, but out of school as well.
Please let us know of your children’s accomplishments. We would love to update our “Students in the Spotlight”. Please send to the office a picture and short sentence or two explaining their accomplishments.
