Principal's note

Three important updates for this week:

It was so wonderful meeting many of the families at the Ice Cream Social on Monday evening. The staff, students, and caretakers all had fun building community. If you have any questions please give us a call 802-897-7181 or email me at ajohnson@acsdvt.org.
Take care,
Andy

Message from Ms. Flinn
It is so wonderful to begin the year with all of these creative learners! We began this year with growing our minds by working with mistakes! We learn that mistakes are sometimes frustrating, however they do help our minds think about things differently and often are the steps we take to success.
Learners are given paper that has a “mistake” on it. Using different perspectives, they then turn the mistake into a work of art. A scribble becomes an alligator, a farm, a mountain range, etc.
How can we apply this creative problem solving to other areas of our learning?
Engage and Connect!
We are looking for YOU to help the students at Shoreham Elementary School. There are many ways to get involved. Prior to coming into our school, you must complete the volunteer application process. If you have any question or want an idea of what the possibilities are,

Help our schools with one simple form!
Speaking of breakfast and lunch: All school meals will be free again for ALL students! But, it's still VERY IMPORTANT to complete the free and reduced meal application form. Our district gets $475,000+ each year based on the % of students who qualify for free/reduced meals.
