We will be celebrating the hard work of all staff members this week!
Grade 4 Math MCAS
Our fourth grade students will be taking the Math MCAS on Wednesday and Thursday of this week. It is important that they are in school on time and are well rested. Thanks in advance for your support with this.
Plimoth Patuxet Visit Tuesday, May 3rd
Our 2nd and 3rd grades will have visitors from the Plimoth Patuxet Museum and will experience the Peoples of the Dawn Land program. This classroom visit will help them learn about the daily life of the Wampanoag in the 17th century, as well as their current lives and communities. Students will gain an understanding of the connection the Wampanoag and other Native people have to Mother Earth, their seasonal way of life, and their respect for all living beings. Our Native American Museum Teacher wears modern clothing and speaks from a modern perspective so that they can discuss the story of their people in both past and present times. They will share artifacts of traditional life, such as wooden bowls and spoons, animal furs, and tools.
Lexia Reading Challenge
During the month of May, our students will have the opportunity to participate in a challenge using the Lexia Core5 Reading Program. The challenge will remain a mystery and will be announced on Monday, May 2nd. One class that meets or exceeds the challenge will win and will get to select a prize from a special list of prizes!!
