Field Day
All students will have Field Day on Friday, June 3rd. Students should dress appropriately for outdoor physical activity and bring a water bottle. Below is the schedule for the day:
- K-2: 9:30-12:00
- 3-5: 12:30-3:00
Virtual Academy students who are attending should make sure they have told their teacher they are coming. K-2 VA students should go through carpool during arrival time (8:45-9:15) and will need to be picked up at school at 12:00. 3-5 VA students need to be dropped off at 12:15 and picked up at 3:00.
There are a few more available spots for afternoon volunteers (3rd-5th grades) on the Signupgenius. Thank you in advance. We could not have this fun event without your help!
5th Grade Recognition Ceremony
This year's 5th Grade Recognition Ceremony will be held in-person on Friday, June 10th at 11am in the WES Gymnasium.
Information for Families NOT Returning to WES
Weatherstone Elementary will remain a capped school for the 22-23 school year. Due to the class size limitations regulated by the state, we would like to keep a very close eye on our enrollment numbers.
If you have a change of address (to another Wake County address, to another NC county, or out of NC) or will not be attending a Wake County public school for 2022-2023 please complete the following online form.
Families returning to WES next school year do not need to do anything.
Transportation for 2022-23 School Year
Any students who are not currently riding a bus and need transportation for next year will need to request transportation through WCPSS. (For example, this could include students who are in Virtual Academy this year or who are moving to Middle School and will need transportation next year). The link is now available here:https://www.wcpss.net/Page/51640.
