Dear Families, 

Our Grade 5 students absolutely rocked their NGSS testing this week—we are so proud of their hard work and focus! Testing will continue for Grade 5 next week and will begin for Grades 3 and 4. Please see the schedule below for details.

Today’s Rainbow Run was such a fun and meaningful way to celebrate! Students spent part of the day outside recognizing Earth Day with a great activity led by Ms. Clark and parent volunteers—thank you! They then enjoyed running in support of our fundraiser, with so much school spirit on display. It was a wonderful way to end the week.

We also kicked off Running Club this morning with an amazing turnout—thank you to Ms. Lipp and Ms. Francoeur for leading this opportunity for our students.

It’s hard to believe May is right around the corner.  Don’t forget—Mini Golf Night is next Friday! Be sure to sign up for a tee time using the link below. We can’t wait!

Annamaria Simonelli, Principal

We can’t wait to see all of the fun bright colors around school over the next few weeks!👕🩳🧢

This Week's Shoutouts

The PTA Fun Run Committee & Mrs. Clark!

Thank you to all who made today such a special day.  Our students had such a blast!  From STEM to Italian Ice, it was a wonderful way to end our week.  The class who raised the most money got to pick a special prize.  See below for a better idea of what Mrs. Bannon's class picked!
