Elementary Students Invited to Participate in Reading Safari Program
Students in grades PreK–6 have the opportunity to participate in the Reading Safari, a literacy program through Enchanted Forest Water Safari that encourages reading outside of the school day.
Through this program, students can earn a FREE ticket to Enchanted Forest Water Safari this summer by completing at least six hours of reading outside of school. The goal is to promote extracurricular reading and strengthen literacy skills while making reading fun and rewarding.
Students recently received a letter and reading log to take home explaining the program in detail. To participate, students must record the book they are reading, the amount of time spent reading, and have a parent or guardian sign the log to verify their reading time. Reading completed during the school day cannot be counted, as the program is designed to encourage reading at home.
Students will have the entire month of March to complete their reading logs, with a deadline of April 2. All logs must be turned in before April break.
This is a wonderful opportunity for our students to build strong reading habits while earning a fun reward at New York State’s largest water park!

ACE Club is hosting a tubing event at Woods Valley Ski Area this Friday!
🗓 Friday, February 27
⏰ 4:30–6:30 PM
🎟 $20 per person (includes two hours of tubing and hot chocolate!)
We’ve rented the entire tubing area just for our group during those two hours! We still have a limited number of tickets available if anyone would like to join us.
Tubing is open to all ages; however, younger children must be able to get into and out of the tube independently. Each person will need their own ticket and will use their own tube.
This price is less than you would pay if you went on your own 😉
If you’d like to purchase tickets, please let me know! I can accept cash or a check made out to Westmoreland ACE Club.
The weather is looking great in Westernville on Friday, so grab your snow pants, jackets, boots, and come have some fun with us! ❄️
Please email Katie DeCarolis for tickets or any questions. kdecarolis@westmorelandschool.org
