Dear Parents/Guardians:

It’s that time of year again for Cap & Gown photos. Our district will be using Lifetouch as the official provider for these pictures, and this will be the only Cap & Gown photography service offered through the school.

You do have the option to opt out of having your child photographed by Lifetouch. However, if you choose to do so, you will be responsible for providing your own photo for your child.

Please note that Lifetouch also supplies our graduation diplomas. If your child does not have their photo taken by Lifetouch, an alternative diploma will be issued.

Thank You,
Mrs. Jessica Jewell


___________YES, my child can be photographed by Lifetouch.



___________ NO, I do not want my child to be photographed by Lifetouch.

"Friday Hat Day" Our 6th Grade Class has helped to write a new Hat Policy that was presented to our SBDM committee!! We are beyond excited to approve the policy after our 6th Graders worked hard to persuade our SBDM to hear their voices...and we are pleased to say their voices were heard. Please take a minute to read the Persuasive Piece that these amazing 6th Graders wrote using the Best Practices in Writing, as well as putting together a parent note, a petition, and suggested rules. These students presented their case and showed that their voices can make a difference!! The following 6th Graders were rewarded a Leadership Award for taking charge of putting together the new "Hat Policy" on behalf of the 6th grade class and the students of Warfield Elementary! Coraline Spence, McKenna Fletcher, Hunter McGinnis, Cora Taylor, Jessica Jude, Josh Mollett, Elizabeth Dials, Abby Webb, Aaron Dalton, Damien Moore, Max Smith, Zoey Murphy I have attached the student work they submitted along with a few pictures of their PowerPoint as well.

WES is beyond proud of our Spelling Bee Team. You all showed up and showed out!! Congratulations to each and every single one of you and a special shout out to Miss Emma Nichols who came in 5th Place!! Way to go Emma!! WES also wants to thank our amazing coach Samantha Ward and her wonderful assistant Amanda Stacy ❤️ Spelling Bee Team: Emma Nichols, LoriAnna Parks, McKenna Fletcher, Coraline Spence, Elizabeth Dials, Paul Dials, Brynlee Baker, Avianna Maynard, and Bryson Baisden

Book Fair! Our school's BOGO fair is coming soon! We would like to invite you to become a sponsor. What makes the Book Fair one of the best days for kids? For starters, it offers the rare (and for the younger kids, the very first!) chance to shop for themselves. Whether it's discovering a new genre or picking up the latest book in their favorite series. The fair is also a place where inspiring connections are made- with characters, fellow fans, and a lifelong love of reading. Warfield Elementary is a K-6th school with around 340 students. While the average cost of a book at the fair is $8, many of our school families lack the financial means for even one purchase. Your sponsorship will ensure every student can experience our special brand of #bookjoy with their classmates and leave the fair with something they'll love! Here's a look at how your sponsorship can make a meaningful difference: Sponsor 5 students with 40 dollars. Sponsor 10 students with 80 dollars. Sponsor 100 students with 800 dollars. @everyone

Parents/Guardian's, Warfield Elementary's Soft Lockdown is now over. Everything has resumed as normal.

Parents/ Guardians, Warfield Elementary is currently on a soft lockdown. This is due to a neighboring situation. The school is under no threat. However, we are taking extra precaution to ensure the safety of our students. Cops are already on the scene taking care of the situation. This has nothing to do with our school and there is no threat to our school or students.

Dr. Seuss' Read Across America Spirit Week!
March 2nd-6TH

Attention Parents and Guardians: The district wide pep-rally has been moved to Thursday, February 26th. Students across the district will be participating in a district-wide pep rally on Thursday, February 26th at 11:00 a.m. We will be busing all students to Martin County High School to participate in the WSAZ News "Fired Up!" segment. The organizers have purchased many items to distribute, including noisemakers and pom-poms. There will also be a contest for the best sign among elementary and middle school students; therefore, we encourage students to create signs for the event. Prizes will be awarded to the winners! Games have been curated to include all grade levels, and we have planned several exciting activities. Lance Tackett will serve as the Master of Ceremonies (MC). If you do not want your child to be filmed, you may opt for them to remain at school, as we will be unable to control the filming by news cameras. We ask that students wear red, camouflage, or their Martin County shirts! We will use the same field trip form that you already filled out previously.
