    Dear Woman’s Club of Pewaukee Members,

    Today marks the first measurable snowfall in Lake Country! It sure is lovely…

    We do not have a December Membership Meeting. Instead we are hosting our annual Razzle Dazzle Holiday Luncheon next Thursday. Have you reserved your seat yet? We also need help before and after the event, so please let me know if you are available to help us! Remember to bring hats, scarves and mittens for women in need at The Women’s Center in Waukesha. A representative from The Women’s Center is attending our luncheon to take them to the shelter on our behalf. Thank you for remembering your donation!

    I wish you all a wonderful Thanksgiving!

    Opportunity to Volunteer at Pewaukee Public Schools

    There are two wonderful programs at Pewaukee Lake Elementary (PLE) and Horizon Elementary (HE) called Math Mentors and Expert Listeners. They run Monday through Thursdays, October through the end of May with a brief training prior to starting.

    Expert Listeners serve as reading buddies. They listen to the students read aloud for 15 minutes starting at 8:50-11:15 at PLE and 9:30-11:55 at HE on a weekly basis. At PLE the volunteer would walk from hall to hall and sit outside the classrooms. At Horizon, the students come to the volunteer at the library. Comment sheets are filled out which go to each teacher at the end of each week.

    Math Mentors are afternoon blocks which have been filled for this semester. They are Monday through Thursday for about an hour each day. The volunteer would work with one class/grade in the back of their classrooms. They are looking for a weekly commitment. Currently there are a few openings that need filling immediately since two senior volunteers dropped out due to health reasons.

    PLE alternate Wednesdays (1st, 3rd and 5th Wednesday of each month). One opening.

    HE alternate Mondays or Wednesdays (1st, 3rd and 5th Wednesday of each month). Two openings. Please contact Abby if you are interested!
