Back to School Bash
Kick off the school year with food, fun, and friends! 🎶 DJ James will keep the energy up while kids test their strength breaking boards with American Martial Arts. Grab a bite from Bucktown Grille, cool off with Maggie Moo’s or Lani Ice, and shop local with Off Grid Goodies.
Kids can enjoy carnival games, a hula hoop contest, and (drumroll, please…) the chance to pie Dr. Detweiler…and maybe even some of your favorite teachers…in the face! 🥧😂
Plus: grab your WVES spirit wear and sign up for your PTA membership in person!
Don’t miss this much anticipated annual night of Wildcat fun for the whole family! 🐾
Interested in volunteering?
It takes a village to pull off a great event and we’d love your help! Whether you’ve got 30 minutes or a full hour to give, there are plenty of ways to pitch in at the Back to School Bash:
🛍️ Running the spirit wear table
🎯 Supervising carnival games
🧱 Keeping an eye on the retaining wall area for safety
🎈 Helping with event setup and cleanup
Volunteering is a great way to connect with other families and be part of the fun. Sign up today and help us kick off the school year in style!
Have a high schooler in need of community service hours? We’re happy to sign off on those, too!
PLEASE NOTE: clearances are required and must be submitted and approved through the volunteer application portal (RAPTOR) prior to signing up for an open slot via our SignUp Genius.

Author Visit
A message from Mrs. Vanemon:
EXCITING NEWS! Jonathan Stutzman, a New York Times bestselling, award-winning author of books for kids and Heather Fox, an illustrator of stories for children, are coming to West Vincent on May 12th!! Jonathan has written many picture books and will be sharing his writing process with the students. Their goal is to leave kids excited and inspired by books and the joy of creating. They firmly believe that EVERY child is creative and has their own story to tell! If you would like to purchase one or more of their books to have them signed on the day they are here please feel free to do so at the link below. Towne Book Center in Collegeville will be our preferred vendor for this event. You can order online and pick the books up at their store in the Providence Town Center or have them shipped to you directly. There will not be an option to buy books the day of the event. Your child should bring the books to school NO LATER THAN May 8th for them to sign.
Thank you~
