A Note From the Principal
The teachers and I have been noticing lots of students wearing Gizmo smart watches and similar devices. As of now, these are allowed at school, as long as they do not become a distraction. If they interrupt students' learning or teachers' teaching, they will no longer be permitted at school. Please take a minute to talk to your kids about when and where it's appropriate to use these devices. Thank you for your cooperation!
Thank you,
Mathew Prezioso
Principal, Munson Elementary
