Good Afternoon Families,
I want to thank all the families and students for the variety of donations we have received this year for various endeavors. As you may recall from a previous email the students sent over 600 items to the local food pantry, donated over 600 dollars’ worth of gift cards and kindness ideas for our Festival of Trees and lastly our donation bin for toys for Wilmington Children through the Wilmington Fire Department is filled! It is wonderful to be around such caring families and students. Around this time of year, it is nice to encourage and notice the 3 R's at the Shawsheen School (respect, responsibility and resilience).
This week on Friday we will be having an All School Meeting and instead of wearing our Shawsheen shirts we are encouraging students to wear their favorite pajamas or comfy clothes. During our meeting we are going to do silent sustained reading together in the cafeteria as a group. Your child may bring in a favorite book from home, magazine, or book from the classroom.
Just a reminder that Friday is a full day of school. School will resume on January 2nd.
Lastly, I just want to wish everyone a Happy Holiday and Happy New Year.
Looking forward to seeing everyone in the New Year!
