Thank you to all the families who have contributed to the Festival of Trees. We have plenty of items now for under the Snow Day Tree. Please be sure to stop by the first weekend in December at the hall to check out all the amazing trees. All the proceeds as you know go to the WOW foundation, which helps to support our community in so many ways. After Thanksgiving we will be leaving our yearly bin outside of the office to collect toys for the Wilmington Fire Department to Support Wilmington Children as well.
This week we had our practice Alice Drill. The students and staff followed all the procedures and protocol. They did a great job. We will continue to practice all our safety drills throughout the year including different scenarios.
Next week is a busy week. Second graders have a field trip on Monday to Plimouth Plantation. The second grade team will be sending out a reminder regarding attire and details for Monday. We will have an All School Meeting on Tuesday so please have students wear their shawsheen t-shirts or Shawsheen gear! We will be reviewing our 3 R's of respect, responsibility and resilience pertaining to different locations in the school such as bathroom, hallways and recess. In addition we will be showing a video which I will share with parents after the students view it on our Buddy Bench and how to utilize it.
On Wednesday we have an early release. Students will be released at 12:00. No lunches will be served and no afternoon cares. Please be sure if your child is going home by a different means of transportation that they have a note.
Also, the week after when we return we have the Author Visit on the Wednesday and we have Star Lab coming in for First graders on Thursday.
Thank you for all your support and have a great Thanksgiving,
Mrs. King
