Linda Holm and Cassandra Ventura's fifth and sixth graders will be appearing on KZFR 90.1 Wednesday evening, November 4, 6 pm on the "Real Issue" public affairs program. They will be reenacting the Senneca Falls Convention of 1848, where Elizabeth Cady Stanton and others protested the unequal treatment of women and launched the women's right to vote movement. The students have studied that history in depth and assume the roles of both supporters and opponents of the movement. Tune in: KZFR 90.1, 6 pm Wednesday.

The 5th and 6th grade classes time-traveled back to 1848 today to recreate the first women's rights convention at Seneca Falls.

Ice Cream Social this Thursday!!!
Wildflower Kindergarteners took a field trip to Bidwell Park's Cedar Grove last week, where they learned about Summer in the park: poison oak, oak galls, grasses, and goats!
Due to the unpredictable weather predicted for this evening, we are postponing the Ice Cream Social for a later date.
We are looking forward to seeing all of the WOC community at the Ice Cream Social next Wednesday! Please plan on checking in at the main gate to get your ice cream tickets and event "passport". Complete this special checklist to be entered into the raffle for a $50 Pour House Gift Card! In addition to enjoying ice cream, the kids can play games, get their face painted, or join the scavenger hunt to earn tickets for a special kids-only raffle!
Kindergarteners went on a Field Trip to visit the Farmer's Market for seasonal summer foods. Students shopped for tomatoes in a variety of colors, then got to taste and vote on their favorites!
