This week’s Paw Prints from Principal Katie Grassa:

• End of the Year: The last day of school for ALL students is on Wednesday, June 25th. Also on Tuesday, June 24th and Wednesday, June 25th students will have a ½ day and be dismissed at 12:30pm.
• SSC: The last School Site Council meeting of SY 2013-2014 will take place on Tuesday, June 10th from 5:30pm-7:00pm in the Library. All are welcome.
• Health and Wellness: The last Health and Wellness meeting of SY 2013-2014 will take place on Tuesday, June 10th from 3:30pm-4:30pm in the Guidance Office. All are welcome.
• BPS Transportation: Below is a message from Transportation Director Carl Allen. I strongly recommend that the Curley K-8 community gets involved.
  

  This is a personal plea from me to get your students (grades 5 and up), your staff, your parents — and YOU registered for Community 
PlanIt and taking part in this really important community discussion.
 Register at communityplanit.org/bpsdot. It starts on Monday!!



  This is a great opportunity to use technology, talk
 about civic engagement, train students on responsible use of social media,
 and actually engage in a meaningful way on a policy matter that directly
 impacts THEM! 

I think this community conversation will be a good experience in its
 own right for those that take part — and clearly getting your
 community and kids talking and learning about it is important because
 riding the MBTA is going to be a bigger part of your school’s culture
 and that of BPS as a whole with the changes we’ve made.

  

Please help me get folks signed up and in the game!! communityplanit.org/bpsdot

• Families Notice: We know that dismissing almost 900 students at the end of each day can be hectic and cause traffic, but we are asking families to please not park in the staff lots during dismissal. There have been a few close calls over the last week where students filing to buses were almost hit by cars. We must assure the safety of all students during arrival and dismissal. Also please do not dismiss your child after 2pm. There is a growing pattern of early dismissals after 2pm and it is disruptive to the work going on in the classrooms.
• Rockmonitor Midway Café Show: Please join us on Friday, June 20th for the 3rd Annual Rockmonitor Midway Café Show. The event is for adults only and goes from 8pm-11pm and all proceeds go toward the arts and science programming at the Curley. All performances are by Curley Community members and all families are welcomed!
