Thank you to those families who, as of November 9th, have already donated to the Warner Annual Fund.
We are only at 43% school wide participation. We need to increase our participation, both in terms of class participation and dollars contributed.
If you’re procrastinating, don’t; your contribution will be missed (and remember, don’t let time run out to get your tax deduction for this calendar year)! WAVE provides programs, services, supplies, and more for every single student, and your children are benefiting from WAVE funded programs daily; they have the assistance of in class aides, they are attending art classes, science labs, computer lab, preparing for the amazing Winter Sing, and receiving playground coaching. All of this has been fully or largely funded by WAVE–NOT by LAUSD, and NOT by the state or the federal government.
If you can’t give the suggested amount, give what you can. Every dollar matters. We need widespread support to ensure we can continue to provide the high-caliber education we want for our kids. Go to https://fundraising.warnerschool.org/warner-annual-fund/ to give today!
Names in BOLD have donated as of last printing. If you donated and do not see your name on this list or your name is displayed incorrectly, contact warnerannualfund@gmail.com.
Parent Education Event – Tuesday, November 13th
Please join us to hear LMFT (licensed marriage and family therapist), Jason Ickovitz, speak on how to talk to our children about difficult life subjects. The event will be on Tuesday, November 13th at 8:45am in the Mitchell Auditorium
Jason says, “One of the toughest jobs of parenting is talking to your kids about difficult subjects. In calmer moments finding time to read books to your child that address difficult topics such as death, racial differences, homelessness, bullies and anger management is an excellent way to help your child comprehend their experience and make better sense of the world.”

Help students recognize how much they have to be grateful for each day (big and small) and point out how they can change their perspective when something doesn’t go their way. Similar to putting on their “thinking caps,” students can put on their “gratitude goggles”.
Dinnertime Discussion
1. Discuss big and small things for which you are grateful as a family.
2. Share examples of how you might change your outlook on something to show gratitude even if you feel disappointed or angry.
3. Discuss why gratitude is the key to happiness.
A Note from the School’s Office
The school’s office staff is requesting small children clothing for grades TK and kindergarten, sizes 5 and up. They are requesting leggings, shorts, and underwear for boys and girls.
A big thanks in advance!
