This week’s Paw Prints from Principal Katie Grassa:

  • Teacher Appreciation Week: May 5th-9th is National Teacher Appreciation Week and Tuesday, May 6th is Teacher Appreciation Day. We are thankful for our teachers and all the hard work they do each day to assure that all students are successful.
  • MCAS: Mark your calendars and remember that you can help your child prepare for MCAS by having them get a good nights sleep, eat a healthy breakfast and arrive to school on time for testing. Grades 3-8 will be taking the math MCAS on Thursday, May 8th and Friday, May 9th and grades 5 & 8 will be taking the science MCAS on Monday, May 12th and Tuesday, May 13th.
  • Grades 6-8 Report Cards: The 3rd quarter grades closed for all students in grades 6-8 on Thursday, April 17th. Report cards will be sent out next week.
  • Families Notice: We are please to have so many families bring their child to and from school however, there has been a lot of families staying in the building after arrival and reentering the building before dismissal starts. We are asking all families to escort their child to class and promptly leave the building by the time announcements begin and in the afternoon families can enter the building at 2:25pm when walkers are called for dismissal. Thank you for your support.
  • School Parent Council: May SPC meeting will take place on Wednesday, May 7th from 8:45am-10:45am in the Upper School Library.
  • Thank You: Thank you to all the families that assisted with the School Previews for incoming students this past week. It was great to have new families introduced to our community by those who know it best. Also thank you to all the families that helped with the Plant Sale on Saturday. The weather cooperated and many staff, students, families and neighbors showed up to support the Curley K-8 School.
