The Compass Rose: 5/26
Principal's Message
To the East Elementary School community:
It's hard to believe we are in the dwindling days of the school year...13 days of school remaining! Many classrooms or grade levels have exciting events planned, student excitement is high, and we're looking forward to finishing the year strong.
We wrapped up our MCAS testing this week with the Grade 5 Science & Technology and are happy to be done with this year's round of assessments!
Have a great long weekend!
- Mr. Hawes
June 1 Kindness Incentive
Our school has done an incredible job meeting the expectations of our Kindness Initiative and our Kindness Tree is filled with leaves!
To celebrate the amazing ways they've spread kindness throughout our building, we will be treating each grade to a bounce house water slide on Thursday June 1st. Students will participate in this during their recess time and they will get wet, so they will need either fast-drying clothes, a change of clothes, or swimwear.
