Updates from Principal Dickson

Dear Welby Families,

We want to extend a heartfelt thank you for your incredible generosity and participation in our recent school events! Together, through the Fun Run, Book Fair, and Halloween Dance, our community raised nearly $6,000—a tremendous accomplishment that shows the power of what we can do when we come together for our students.

We’re also so grateful to everyone who donated candy for Trunk or Treat and helped make it such a joyful and festive event for our students. Your contributions created lasting memories and helped bring our community even closer together.

The funds raised will directly support student activities that make Welby such a special place to learn and grow—including field trips, Field Day, our Winter and Spring Concerts at the MAC, the Winter Carnival, and our Thanksgiving Family Lunch. These experiences enrich learning, build belonging, and celebrate the creativity and spirit of our students.

Thank you for always showing up for our Hawks—with your time, your donations, and your positive energy. We are truly grateful for your partnership and for making Welby a vibrant, joyful community where every student can thrive.

With gratitude,
Mrs. Danielle Dickson
Principal, Welby Community School of the Arts
