DAISY DAILY FOR WEEK OF MARCH 13, 2017

Our Daisy students have displayed their incredible school spirit at recent high school basketball State Tournament games at Westbrook High School.

Daisy Staff,

We may have quite a week ahead, if the reports of a Nor'easter/Blizzard hits us as predicted.  I will continue to update our Staff Calendar (with rotating specials, scheduled events, last day of school, etc.) as necessary.

Please continue to consult our Daisy Staff Google Calendar at:

Last week, we accomplished a lot during our Wednesday PLCs and Thursday PD.  I will let you know the plan to complete the work we had planned to do in our Friday PD as soon as that is finalized.

As you plan for the week ahead:

• I'm delighted to inform you that our new school nurse, Mary Fleming, RN, will join us on Monday, March 13, as outlined in my previous e-mail.  She'll come by classrooms on Monday morning so that our students and staff can meet her.  I will also send home an announcement to families.
• Our Breakfast for EL families, "Coffee & Chat" is scheduled for this Wednesday, 7:45-8:30 am in Room 20 with a rain/snow date for the following Wednesday, March 22, same time, same place.
• We will host the "Harlem Rockets" for a brief assembly this Thursday, from 1:00-1:30 pm in the gym.  They will share a positive message re: friendship and anti-bullying.  They will be featured in a game vs. the WMS 8th Grade Boys/Girls Basketball Teams on Thursday evening as a benefit for the WMS PTO.
• Don't forget that "Light on Westbrook," the photographic art show will take place at Oxford Academy on Saturday, March 18, from 6:30-8:30 PM.  This fundraiser benefits WPS Summer Meals Program for Children and tickets are available in the Daisy office.  Please join us if at all possible : )

As always, please keep in close touch and let me know your concerns.

Warmly,

Ruth
