Message from Mrs. Jarvis, Principal
Just a reminder to reference and read through our Student Handbook. There have been a few questions regarding the District’s policy on the publication of student photographs - please reference Appendix D in the Handbook where the District provides an Opt-Out Form for parents/guardians.
Grade 2 Enrichment Program
Second Grade enrichment program by the MA Horticultural Society - Plant Mobile. Students were immersed in a hands-on learning experience as they dissected the parts of a plant (petal, stamen, pistil, sepal, and stem) to learn about its ability to reproduce and the important role of each part.
Message from the PTO:
Just a reminder that the PTO Winter Store will take place next Tuesday and Wednesday. This event is one of the children's favorites! They get so much joy from picking gifts for their family and friends. A flyer was sent home earlier this week with more details including a class shopping schedule. We are in need of additional volunteers for set-up, clean up and helping the students shop. If you're able to help, please sign up here: https://bit.ly/suwinter22
Assistance for the Holidays:
We wanted to share with our families that there are community agencies that are able to provide confidential help for GDRSD families that are struggling. If you are in need of some assistance with holiday food and/or gifts, please fill out this form and return it to your child’s teacher or school nurse as soon as possible. Again, all information is strictly confidential.
