Walk and Roll Wednesday
It was great to see so many students and families walking and rolling to school today! Some chose one of our routes, some walked on their own route and other students cheered the walkers on as they got off the bus - to all involved - thank you! We are looking forward to continuing this initiative. Thank you to Katara Harding, Trish Boateng and all of NYS for bringing this program to our school!
Honoring Veterans
On Tuesday, November 7th from 8:45 - 9:15, we will host an assembly to honor our Veterans. If anyone in your family (parent, grandparent, or other close family member) is a Veteran, they are welcome to attend the assembly. Our students would love to sing to you and thank you for your service. Please RSVP on this Google Doc we can plan seating for our guests. If you have any questions, please reach out to our school librarian, Renee Ames (rames@newburyport.k12.ma.us).
Our veterans and guests do not need to go through the CORI and Fingerprinting process but will need to sign in through the Main Office/Door 1.
PTO Updates:
Join the PTO
Our PTO Meeting is tonight, Wednesday, October 11th at 7:00 pm at The Poynt. We will be discussing upcoming events and sustainability initiatives at the Bresnahan, Molin and Nock Schools.
We are looking for board members and chairs! The PTO is looking for an Assistant Treasurer to round out our board. Joining the board is a great way to get involved and help our school community. We are also looking for volunteers to chair the Election Day Bake Sale and Downtown Hot Cocoa Stands. You do not need to be on the board or attend regular meetings to chair an event, and we are here to help! If you are interested in any of these positions, please reach out to us at newburportpto@gmail.com
It was such a pleasure seeing so many of you during last week's Open House. The PTO is a dedicated group of parents and caregivers committed to making our school community welcoming for all. We hope you will join us at our General Meeting at The Poynt tonight at 7PM where you'll have the opportunity to connect with many exceptional parents and caregivers who share our vision. Your involvement, big or small, can make a meaningful difference, and we can't wait to see you there!
Please email us at newburyportpto@gmail.com if you have any questions
