From the Desk of Ellen Knippel, Principal

Dear Parents,

Well, here we are, back for our first full week of school. I think the first few days last week went relatively well. Students and staff were glad to be back and excited to begin the new year. We had 100% attendance at Back to School Night and eagerly await our parent meetings this week Tuesday (Middle School) & Thursday (K3-5).

A couple of reminders:
  • Please be sure to sign up for your 2 mandatory volunteer slots on Sign Up Genius. Remember to please get a sub if you are unable to make it. It is difficult to find teacher coverage at the last minute.

  • Summer Reading Log - Please send in your completed summer reading log you received from School Committee in June. As promised we will send home an award for completed logs.

  • Parent Meetings
  • Tuesday, August 31st - 6-7:30pm Middle School Meeting. Please meet in the PLC for a general info session by School Committee followed by teacher Homeroom meetings. Students should attend this meeting with parents.
  • Thursday, September 2nd - 6-7:30pm Gr. 3K-5. Please meet in the PLC for a general meetings. Parents will then head to classroom for specific grade level information.

Blessings,

Mrs. Ellen Knippel
