Dear Whitetail Creek Parents,
It’s hard to believe that we have only one week left of school in 2024! This first half of the year has been incredible, and we are so grateful for the opportunity to partner with you in your child’s educational journey. Thank you for trusting us with your children!
This week, our 1st graders delivered a wonderful performance of "The Snow Buster", complete with a fun “snow day” scene! They were absolutely thrilled to share their hard work with their families and Whitetail students.
Looking ahead, we have some exciting events coming up:
Our 4-year-old Preschool music program will be on Monday, December 16th, at 6:30 PM.
Winter break begins on December 23rd, with students returning on Monday, January 6th.
In PTO news, we have a meeting on Tuesday, December 17th, at 6:30 PM. Then, next Thursday, we’ll wrap up the semester with a special performance during the day by Omaha Street Percussion. A huge thank you to our PTO for making this event possible!
As required by Nebraska State Law, our health office will conduct annual screenings next week for 1st–4th graders, new 5th graders, and Kindergarteners who didn’t complete this during their physicals. These screenings will include vision, hearing, dental, height, and weight and will be conducted by our school nurse, Anna Castillo. If your child wears glasses, please ensure they bring them to school. If you’d prefer your child not to participate in these screenings or if you have any questions, please contact Nurse Anna at acastillo@gpsne.org.
Wishing you all a joyful holiday season and a well-deserved break. We look forward to seeing you in 2025 for a fantastic second half of the school year!
Warm regards,
Dr. Falcone
