Warner Annual Fund
Happy 2018! On behalf of the Warner student body, thank you for the generosity and support of the following donors who have to date made contributions to the 2017-18 Warner Annual Fund (those in bold have contributed since the last publishing of this list in Warner What’s Happening).
We are currently at 58% participation, but are still looking to get to 100% participation before Spring Break! If you have not yet donated, now’s the time to do so, as time is running out to get your name on the Annual Fund banner. Please go online to:
to donate today. Remember, your donation is tax deductible and any amountyou can contribute is appreciated, helps to keep the enrichment programs and support at Warner in place, and gets us one step closer to 100% participation.
5th GRADE PARENTS ONLY – You have an option to buy a Yearbook Memory Page. (Scroll down this link to purchase & a DIY guide). Memory Pages are due Feb. 23rd.
Warner Families – It’s never too early to do your part to help make this year’s Auction Gala the best it’s ever been! We are seeking donations for our world class auction, specifically in the form of certificates for travel, restaurants, sporting events, concerts, kids’ activities and other entertainment. Copies of the solicitation form are located outside the Main Office. We suggest keeping them in your car and in your purse, so you have them handy when at dinner, are away for Thanksgiving or winter break, or at one of your children’s extracurricular activities.
BrainPop covers topics within Science, Math, Social Studies, English Language Arts, Technology, Engineering, Arts, Music, Health, Reading, and Writing. The content is carefully mapped to the Common Core, aligned to academic standards, and searchable with the online Standards Tool.
Hundreds of topics are all brought to life through short, animated movies and related interactive quizzes, timelines, charts, writing/vocabulary activities, graphic organizers, and much more.
We have access to two programs-BrainPop (upper grades) and BrainPop Jr. (lower grades). Each has its own website:
Warner’s Community Builders want to introduce “Flowers with Inspiration in the Office”.
Please sign up in the office to bring flowers (home-bought or from your garden) in your own vase Monday morning to Friday afternoon. Please have your kids find an inspirational quote to place in the 3″ x 5″ frame (frame is provided) as well your kid’s name. We hope you will take part in this sweet and new Warner tradition.
There will be a sign-up list at the office for Flowers with Inspiration. Please ask Pam or Caroline for the list.
