Veterans Day Program

On Tuesday, the Waller community came together to honor our Veterans in a special Veterans Day program. We were grateful to welcome family members who have served in the military as our honored guests. The event began with a reception in the cafeteria featuring coffee and cookies, followed by a heartfelt program in the gymnasium.
The presentation included a slideshow of photos honoring our Veterans and concluded with a special song performed by the Waller students. It was a memorable afternoon dedicated to showing our appreciation for the brave men and women who have served our country.

Ambassador Club Used Book Sale

HERE IS A CHANCE TO DO SOME CLEANING AND GET RID OF THOSE OLD BOOKS COLLECTING DUST!!!

The 4th Grade Ambassador Club will be hosting their Annual Used Book Sale on Wednesday, November 19th during the afternoon in the gym. All students and teachers are invited to bring in AGE APPROPRIATE USED BOOKS to donate to the sale. Students will earn one free book coupon for every 5 books they donate. All other books will cost 25 cents at the sale!

Students and staff who would like to donate books should bring them to Mrs. Hoffman’s office November 3rd-November 18th. Please leave your name on your stack of books or on the bag if Mrs. Hoffman is not in her office so she knows who to give the coupons to. Each class will have a chance to visit the Book Sale during the afternoon of the 19th to buy books or use their coupons.

Every year we are amazed by the quality of books that are donated. Students will be able to buy some great books at a VERY cheap price.
