Welcome to Witte's Word

What an exciting first month of school. My new position as the principal at PASS Woodwinds has been very interesting. I have been totally impressed with the commitment of the staff to help students be successful. The students in turn  have responded by engaging in their work and being respectful to the learning environment. 

One of the things I really enjoy here at PASS is spending time with the students during lunch time. We often have our foods program make us a delicious meal which we share with the school. Nothing is better than sitting around a table with students eating and telling stories. So much is learned during this time.  A big thanks for the students have made these meals for all of us to share. I also want to say a big thanks to the students for be so welcoming to me and for opening the the door , although maybe just a bit into their lives, dreams and of course challenges. 

Below is a picture of our students helping at the local SOS (Society of Organized Services) Thanksgiving Lunch. So rewarding to have our students helping with the seniors to help provide them with a nice meal. Great to see cross generations working beside and for each other to make a stronger more worthwhile community. I am very proud of our students for making this happen along with our teacher Martin Jedlik and many other supporting casts.

Hope the school year as started as positive for students as it has been for me. 
Thanks PASS/Woodwinds for making me feel welcome and at home. I am looking forward to a super year for of many more positive interactions
