• Thanks to all for the mountain of work that you put into producing our students' Report Cards for the first trimester, with special thanks to Ben and Tiffini for all the attentive technical expertise throughout the process.  Please be sure to share comments from families with me re: the new format and content and I'll do the same.

Thanks so much to our staff members, Ellen Tucker and MaryJo Noonan, who organized our fourth-grade students from the garden club and their families to be involved in a community project to beautiful our town center.  On a beautiful day before the snow flew, they planted more than a thousand bulbs so that we will all be able to enjoy the
 beautiful flowers in the spring!  
Hope springs eternal : )

Thanks so much to our students and their families for their participation in this after-school event, connected with our local service groups.
