2015-04-26 | @ Lincoln-Eliot
NewtonSERVES announces Project Registration is Now Open for Day of Community Service on Sunday, April 26, 2015

Volunteer projects are welcome from Newton non-profits, Newton city departments and schools, individuals, and groups of citizens interested in accomplishing specific tasks with the help of over 1,000 volunteers from the community. Projects can easily be registered online, by visiting www.newtoncommunitypride.org/NewtonSERVES-project.php.

Projects can be in the morning, afternoon or all-day on Sunday, April 26th or they can be set up individually on an alternate date during the City of Newton’s Volunteer Week, April 27th-May 2th. In addition to gaining access to volunteers to tackle specific tasks, project sites may be eligible to receive additional resources such as mulch, garbage and yard waste bags. Project sites also benefit from raised awareness within the community and all participants receive NewtonSERVES T-shirts and refreshments in honor of their volunteer service. New projects leaders are encouraged to sign up along with recurring projects and experienced leaders.

When responding, please be aware that the Massachusetts Secretary of State has determined that most email is public record and therefore cannot be kept confidential.

Starting on April 29, 2015, Lincoln-Eliot 5th Grade will be auctioning off a number of fun and unique items to bid on to raise money for our organization – and the more items we have the more money we can raise, so we’re asking for your help.
The auction will run from April 29, 2015 to May 10, 2015, with proceeds going to Lincoln-Eliot 5th grade camping trip. The trip is a once in a lifetime experience. All the 5th grade students at Lincoln-Eliot will spend 2 nights at an overnight camp with their classmates before they move on to middle school. Amazing memories and great friendships!

Ploughshares Summer Program Forms
2015-06-05 08:00 - 17:00
School is close to the end and we are creeping up on summer. We need to get summer forms from families as soon as possible, as we need to get all paperwork together for our summer licensing. The link to the forms is below or you can ask a teacher for a hard copy at pick up. With these forms we also need a current (with in the last 12 months) physical for all children. This is required by the health department.
If your child has meds, I will bring them over from Lincoln Eliot along with the current action plans. FYI Action plans for medical conditions (allergies, athsma, etc) are only good for a year. We will need new ones for the school year!
