Happy St. Patrick's Day from the WUSD!
Gaga Ball anyone?
Gaga Ball is a game that combines the skills of dodging, striking, running and jumping while trying to hit opponents with a ball below the knees. Players learned to keep moving to avoid getting hit by the ball. Third, fourth and fifth grade students have been enjoying learning and playing the game, and finding out it is a serious workout! Our Webster Wildcats want to thank the City of Watertown Park & Recreation Department for borrowing them their Gaga Pit!

Mrs. Godfroy's first grade class recently finished up their nonfiction writing unit and celebrated by getting to share their writing pieces with their 4K friends! The room was set up like a museum and our #WatertownWay 4K students could stop by the writing topics that they were most interested in hearing about. It was an awesome experience that provided the opportunity for Mrs. Godfroy's first graders to be great role models and teachers to our youngest learners. Way to go, Schurz Tigers!
