Outdoor Learning Day...

West Sabine Elementary School is getting prepared for their annual Outdoor Learning Day. It is scheduled for April 21. This day requires a lot of planning, volunteers and support from our local businesses, service departments and financial supports. This year we have 8 stations for Pre-K through 2nd Grade and 12 stations for grades 3rd through 8th. Students will learn things like financial literacy, water safety, fire safety, health and human body, forestry, rivers, lakes and streams, FFA, dairy farming and so much more. Please help make this day a success for our students. This is an educational experience of a lifetime for many of our students. The Tigers have the support of the PTO and WS High School for helpers, SRA, Texas Parks and Wildlife, US and Texas Forest Services, Texas Game Wardens, BOM Bank, Southside Bank, Shelby Insurance, Sabine County Hospital, WS High School FFA, Pineland VFD, WIC, Head Start Program, Mrs. Wolford’s Science Lab, Georgia Pacific, Southwest Dairy Farmers, the WS Culinary class, as well as teachers, administrators, and other staff members to name a few that help bring this educational experience to our youth. If you would consider donating financial backing for water, food for our culinary department to cook and serve our volunteers and some supplies such as canopies to keep some shade on the stations. You may drop your donations off at the West Sabine Elementary office or you may PayPal sheetaprocell@yahoo.com. Any and all donations are greatly appreciated and will be deposited into the schools activity fund for proper distribution. Thank you in advance and have a blessed day.
