*New this year – Flexible open house where parents can stop by after visiting the book fair to see their child(ren)’s classroom work and stay for the morning news show and meeting. With this new format we hope to make things easier for families while continuing to celebrate our students' hard work! Book Fair will remain open 9:00-10:00 a.m. for parents to browse/check out after students return to class.
Volunteers are needed, especially for take down on Friday afternoon. Sign up TODAY to help!
For more information, please check out the PTA website or contact bookfair@wolftrappta.org.
Looking for a way your student can showcase their creativity? Please encourage them to participate in our Reflections Contest! The theme is "I Belong" and your child can express what that means to them through all kinds of art. We have extended the deadline to November 24 so there is still time to create! ALL students that participate will get to celebrate their creativity with an ICE CREAM PARTY! We would love to have some more Wolftrap students participate in this inspiring program!
Contest Entry Form with rules is here!

What: Families will explore experiments provided by the Children's Science Center Lab together, interact with STEM educators and ignite children's natural curiosity in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). Check out the PTA website for more details on this event!

Thank you to all of the students who entered our Yearbook Cover contest. We had 38 amazing entries. WTES staff and teachers voted on the covers and our winner is 3rd grader Christian Athani. His design will be featured on the front cover of the 2025-2026 yearbook. The second place runner up was Lydia Steckley. In 3rd place was Alyson Xiao, and Eliza Unwin came in 4th. The runners up will be featured on the back cover. All other entrants will have their design included inside the yearbook.
