D.A.R.E. kicked off for the kids today and if the next nine weeks are anything like today, it's going to be one of the best years yet! Officer Bergeron was very impressed with his warm welcome and from what I hear, we're the class to beat when it comes to hospitality!

December is right around the corner which means that there might be some wintery changes coming to the website - check back later this week to see the festive additions!

Speaking of December, there are a few fun activities that we'll be doing at the end of the month including a class Yankee Swap, a school Sing-Along, and a movie day! I'll be in touch when we start getting closer these dates!

Can You See Me Now? Maybe Tomorrow, Then!

Hi folks,

Tomorrow morning is our health screening here at school and, unlike previous years, this year the kids in 6th grade will only have their vision checked. From what our nurse, Mrs. Sanborn, has said, the process will only be a few seconds with the new machine that she is using (great news!).

​I've reminded everyone already, but will also put it here, that anyone who has glasses, including those with contacts, please make sure that they bring them so that the nurse can screen them both with and without them. 

Thanks so much, and Happy Monday!
