A Note From Our Principal
It is hard to believe that the 2018-2019 school year is coming to an end. All of our Bulldogs have worked hard this year to follow P.A.W.S. and demonstrate our Core Values. With so much hard work and effort, our summer goal is not to lose the progress made throughout the school year! Please make sure your child is practicing reading strategies and math facts during the summer months. The summer SKILLS for Success program for Walter Douglas students will be hosted at Flowing Wells High School this year, just a block away! If you are interested in registering your child for summer SKILLS please stop by the office for a registration packet.
Kindergarten Registration-The Round-Up continues! If you have a child who will be 5 years old before September 1, 2019, now is the time to please sign him/her up for the BEST all day Kindergarten program in Tucson.
Returning Students- We are in the process of creating class lists for next year. Please complete the online registration process and return the yellow dismissal form to your child’s teacher. If you are not planning to return to Walter Douglas next year simply mark “not returning” on the packet we sent home and return it with your child. We aim to create balanced classes for next year so please be sure to complete your child’s registration!
Walter Douglas Teacher of the Year-This school has the best teachers around and as a team they have nominated Mrs. Kelsi Strickland, 5th Grade Teacher, as our Teacher of the Year for the 2019-2020 school year. Congratulations, Mrs. Strickland!
May is a busy month with many exciting activities planned. Please check the calendar on this website for important dates and times. Please remember, the last day of school is Thursday, May 23rd and that day is noon dismissal!
Thank you to all of you for making this a successful school year, we couldn’t have done it without you! We have truly enjoyed having your child at Walter Douglas and have especially appreciated our interactions with you, our school community. We wish our outgoing 6th graders well as they transition to Flowing Wells Junior High, you are becoming Mustangs but in our hearts you will always be Bulldogs. For all kindergarten through 5th grade students, we wish you a magnificent summer and we will see you next year!
Sincerely,
Dr. Tamára McAllister
Principal
