  • INDEPENDENCE DAY

    In an effort to support students walking to class by themselves, on Monday, October 2, Western Union Elementary will have our 1st annual school wide “Independence Day”.    

    Independence Day will benefit students and teachers.  We want our students to develop independence and confidence that will carry through to the classroom.  Teachers will be able to make the most of their instructional time, including morning time. 

    With this in mind, WUES is declaring our school-wide INDEPENDENCE DAY on Monday, October 2, 2017.  Starting on that date, all students will walk to class independently. 

    How can you help?  We ask that you assist in making this a positive experience for our students and teachers by supporting and encouraging your child(ren) to show their independence by walking to class on their own.

    If you have any questions, please contact Mrs. Williford.

    Can you believe how fast this summer is going? We hope everyone is taking care of the three summer “R’s” – Resting, Relaxing and Reading. At Western Union Elementary we are busy preparing for the 2016-17 school year. Even though students and staff are not at school, there is a lot of work that happens during the summer.
