Native American Heritage Month:

Every year on November 1, Native American Heritage Month is celebrated to honor the remarkable Native Americans who have contributed a lot to improve the character of the nation. This month is also referred to as the American Indian and Alaska Native Heritage Month. November is the time to rejoice in diverse and rich cultures, histories, and traditions and to appreciate the great contributions of the Native Americans. This month allows us to spread awareness about tribes or to educate people about the various challenges faced by the Native Americans in the past and today. Throughout this month, we commit to keep on supporting the remaining Native American tribes and let the world know about their sacrifices.

Hoping to gift your student's teacher or classroom with books? But don't know which ones or can't make it to the book fair? Create an E-Wallet in your teachers name and let them do the shopping!

This is a unique opportunity to hear about what students are doing during their specials as well as connect with our amazing team. We're going to make this fun! Families will receive a scavenger hunt sheet. Completed sheets will be entered into a raffle for a family prize!

We are so grateful to the Gulf of Maine Research Institute for providing a free opportunity for ALL fifth graders to participate in an ecology session. Students enjoyed a comfortable ride down to Portland on a Cyr Coach Bus, being together and having a powerful experiential learning experience. Special thanks to our grade 5 teachers for their organization and planning to make this event a success.
