WES Project Homebound
Mrs. Daly (Student Council) and I (NJHS) will be organizing the food drive collection efforts for Project Homebound this year.
In the spirit of giving and to be positive contributors to our community, classrooms can collect unexpired, unopened canned and non perishable goods from Monday 10/31 - Wednesday 11/9. These items will be delivered to the Project Homebound folks on Saturday 11/12
Student Council and NJHS members will be collecting items from classrooms in the mornings of Wednesday 11/4 and Friday 11/9. Please leave boxes/donations outside your classroom doors. Boxes are available by request if teachers need one.
Attached is the flyer we have made for the Whitefield School Community and the flyer that came from Project Homebound that outlines how to sign up and get a box.
Thank you,

Parents of WES grades 4, 5, 6.
Your child recently witnessed a demonstration of band instruments and also received the attached "rental letter." When I did these demonstrations, I saw a great deal of excitement from students, so I wanted to be sure that you had information in case you wanted to contact me.
THE OPPORTUNITY: This is a chance for your child to learn how to play a band instrument, specifically flute, clarinet, sax, trumpet, or trombone. I am only trying to recruit those five at this time.
COST: The lessons (me teaching them how to play) take place in a weekly 15 minute lesson that is agreed upon between myself and the classroom teacher. The lessons are free because they are within school hours. The cost of the instrument, if your family doesn't already own one, can be huge if you purchase. That is why I recommend renting instead. See the attached flyer from Ellis Music Co. You can rent a quality instrument from most music companies for as little as $20 per month.
TIME: The student needs to practice 15 minutes daily. Between daily practice and the weekly lesson, they will become good performers on the instrument.
Please let me know if you still have questions after looking at the attached documents. I would be happy to answer those questions and would be even happier to get to work with your child.
