We will be hosting an additional Open House this month and need your help to advertise this event! Our next Open House will be held Tuesday May 19th from 9:00-10:00am and again from 6:30-7:30pm that same evening. Here's what you can do:

1. If you know someone that may be interested in Saint Bridget School, invite them to come see the school and take a tour;

2. Take some of the Open House Flyers at the front desk and put them up in places you frequently go: the library, gym, dentist office, pediatrician's office, etc.

Word of mouth continues to be our best advertisement so let's talk it up and get some new families to attend this Open House! Thank you for your continued assistance, I couldn't do it without you!!

The SBS Lego league would like to invite students who are interested in programming and competing in next year's First Lego League (FLL) competition.

We meet Monday nights at 6pm in the art room and would like to invite parents and students who want to participate next year to join us on our last meetings of the year, Monday May 18th and June 1st  to see the team working to solve missions.

Bus 2015-2016:We are in the process of preparing next year's bus list for Framingham students. Forms went home last Wednesday to families with this year's 6th and 7th graders. They must pay the fee of $270 for next year (as do all 7th through 12th graders in the public schools). As for the rest, K through 6th, if you live over 2miles from the school may ride the bus for no charge. If your child falls into this category, and you DO NOT wish bus transportation for next year, please notify Mrs. Feeney and their names will be taken off the list we send to transportation in June.


 
Ineligible riders in grades K-12 may apply for a seat on the bus by requesting an application from the office. If and when a seat becomes available you will be notified (payment is due at the time of notification of an available seat, but the request must be made before the end of this school year).


 
To determine if your child is an eligible or ineligible rider please refer to the FPS website at www.framingham.k12.ma.us/transportation. Ineligible addresses are listed on the website.

 

If you have any questions please call the school office or email Mrs. Feeney.


 

From the Nurse's Office: Students entering 4th or 7th grade in the fall must have a current physical exam and up-to-date immunization record on file. If you have not yet done so, please send it to the health office as soon as possible. Thank you.
