Food Drive -- Thank you!
The Student Council thanks everyone who participated in this year's very successful food drive! We were able to collect 5603 items (1098 of those items were Thanksgiving themed items such as mashed potatoes, stuffing, gravy, or cranberry sauce). The food items are going to help many local families in need for the holidays. In addition, each food pantry in Wrentham, Norfolk, and Plainville will be receiving about 32 boxes of food.
The winning teams for the food drive will be announced on our pep rally day, Wednesday, 11/27.
MAP Growth Assessment - Update
The test is unique -- it adapts to your child's responses in order to measure your child's skill level. If your child answers a question correctly, the next question is more challenging. If they answer incorrectly, the next one is easier. These results will provide a more complete picture of what your child knows and is ready to learn. We are excited to implement this new monitoring tool in our classrooms this school year.
