STEM Week
Ou 2nd annual STEM Week was another HUGE success! Thank you to all the volunteers who came in to share with our kids. From design challenges to building Rue Goldberg Machines, our kids were busy from the start of each day to the end. Thank to Mrs. Adler, Mrs. Brogna, Mr. Engstrom, Mr. Gonzalez, Mrs. Pina and Mrs. Pederson...all parents who came in to share their expertise with kids! Thank you to Jay Mankita from Playful Engineers for another great visit! Thank you to Sue Murray, Jamie Costello and all the staff from Bridgewater State College for all the amazing STEM activities! Thank you to Rich Oakley for teaching the kids all about 3D printing. Thank you Tobey Eugenio and her 30 students from Our Sister's School in New Bedford....the kids loved your visit! Thank you to Val Ruffo and her staff and students from MHS who taught our 3rd graders all about electricity. Lastly, I would like to send out a special shout out to Jamie Costello who joined our committee and made all the visitors from Bridgewater a reality and all my staff who joined the STEM Committee and helped plan and organize another great week of fun and learning!

Artsonia
Hello parents!! You should have received your students Artsonia Parent Code to activate your account. Every student has scanned artwork from their awesome Art Teacher Mrs. Donovan. Their artwork from class will make great gifts for the holidays! You can even add fans to their account (other family members like your spouse, grandparents, godparents, aunts, uncles, etc) in case they want to purchase your students artwork in a gift form. But, if you’d rather surprise them for the holidays, then you can add them later. Mrs. Donovan will be adding all their work from art class into Artsonia throughout the year so that you can keep them in digital form!
Enter your Parent Code from your flyer by clicking the following link to activate your students account:
