Principal Update 4.21.19

Dear families,

We hope you all had a lovely April break — we look forward to seeing everyone back in school tomorrow!

MCAS testing begins this week for our 3rd and 4th grade students, and next week for our 5th graders; the complete schedule is posted at the bottom of this update.  As we said in the letter that went out a few weeks ago, you can help your child by making sure they get a good night’s sleep, eat a healthy breakfast, and arrive at school on time.  Reassure your child that you and their teachers will be proud of them for doing their best work, regardless of their score.

Please mark your calendars:

* Friday, April 26th:  5th Grade Fundraiser at Launch Trampoline Park, 5-9pm
* Sunday, April 28th:  NewtonSERVES, 9am-12pm
* Thursday, May 9th:  Early Release Day, 12:30pm
* Monday, May 13th:  Fun Run — more information coming soon!

Have a great week!

Principal Morrissey
