December Updates


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!

Happy Snow Day and Updates

Good Morning,

I hope everyone is enjoying some quiet time at home with family as we are all snowed in! I wanted to send out a few updates for this week since our timelines have changed a little bit. Report cards were suppose to go out on Wednesday. Due to the two snow days, the report cards will now go out on Friday. Conferences will still resume on Thursday and the students will have an early release day. Just a reminder that no lunches will be served and dismissal is at noon. If your child is going home by a different means of transportation, please send in a note. Also, it is important that all guardians entering the building for a conference go through the front door. All doors will be locked as we still have CARES in the building. We also ask that you go out the front door as well to maintain safety. Thank you so much for helping with this.

Also, just a reminder that the Shawsheen Tree this year is called "Handing our Kindness" and is full of over 500 dollars worth of gift cards. The students also created fingerprints for the skirt of the tree. Look on twitter for a picture or go and check it out this weekend at the Festival of Trees.

We are also a collection spot in support of the Wilmington Firefighters for donations for Wilmington Children. Please feel free to send in any toy or donation (new) to the school for the bin or parents are welcome to drop off during parent/teacher conferences on Thursday.

Thank you and enjoy the rest of your day,

Mrs. King
Principal
