weekly news 11/12/20

Good Morning,

Weekly updates will be brief this week. It was a beautiful week and I hope whether students were remote or in person that they got to enjoy this November weather. 

Next week on November 18th will be an early release day which means students will not be assigned work in the afternoon. Staff have sent out information on signing up for parent/teacher conferences. Please check in with your classroom teacher if you need assistance with sign ups.

News from the PAC:

Lots going on. Please see attached for the Pie Pick up procedures. This will be different from the past as it will be outside and starts at 3:30. We cannot start it earlier due to dismissal procedures and time it takes for them to have it set up. 

The PAC are still selling the community cards for 10 dollars apiece. These will make some great gifts! 

They are also selling gift cards using scripts. If you are planning on buying gift cards please go through them and we get proceeds from each card sold. It is very simple!

Also, is attached the PAC newsletter. I want to thank the PAC for all they do in supporting the schools all the time. They are currently in the process of helping us to buy new recess equipment for cohorts. We appreciate their support and your support tremendously.

Festival of Trees

Our Shawsheen Tree theme this year is Shawsheen Cares. The tree is going to be made of boxes that are stacked like a tree. All boxes will be wrapped and filled with theme boxes of ways to take care of yourself. Some ideas include books, spa gifts, cooking, activities and much more. We are asking for monetary donations or gift cards like we did in years previously. Any donation  even under 5 dollars in gift cards or cash to buy the items would be great. The tree is from all the students and staff from shawsheen regardless of who can contribute. Last year we won Best Tree Topper! If you have a remote student you can arrange to drop anything  during the school day. 

Have a great day and weekend,

Mrs. King
