Wee Deliver Post Office Tradition Continues at Primrose
The newest Postmasters at Primrose Elementary School were sworn in by Officer Brian, as the beloved tradition of the Wee Deliver Post Office continues. Second-graders will sort, deliver, and accept incoming mail from teachers and students throughout the year. The students started this journey by researching the mail delivery process, preparing for interviews, and then getting interviewed by district officials, including Superintendent Dr. Raymond Blanch. This program teaches children the value of handwriting a letter, how to address a letter, and the joy of receiving mail.
