This week’s Paw Prints from Principal Katie Grassa:
- School Parent Council (SPC): The first School Parent Council meeting will take place in the Lower School Gym on Tuesday, October 7th from 6:00pm-8:00pm. All families are encouraged to attend!
- Fall Fling: Save the date for the first SPC fundraiser of the year, the 8th Annual FALL FLING! This is a fabulous family event that will take place on Friday, October 17th from 5:30pm-8:00pm. All families and staff are welcome! To volunteer, please sign up here. To help sell tickets outside JP Licks on the weekends before the event, please click here.
- Playing Field Ribbon Cutting: We will be celebrating the opening of our new playing field on Tuesday, October 28th from 11am, all community members are welcome to attend. We are working out the logistics for having students participate in the event either through a competition or raffle. Thank you to all who have donated money and time to make this dream a reality.
- Old iPhones: Do you have an old iPhone or iPod Touch hanging around your house? Grade 7 is looking for old iPhones or iPods to use with students. They are working to incorporate technology into their classroom and have found some helpful apps to engage students. Please contact Olivia Peters for details at opeters@bostonpublicschools.org.
- Columbus Day: There is no school on Monday, October 13th since it is Columbus Day.
- Halloween: The Curley K-8 will not have a Halloween celebration during the school day. As a community we are focused on health and wellness and therefore we ask that all candy remain at home. We are also asking that students leave all costumes, masks and face painting at home as well. Thank you in advance for your support around this matter.
- Arrival: Please keep in mind that the doors open at 8:15am and the official school day begins promptly at 8:30am. Please make sure to have your child arrive on time for the start of the day. All families can now walk their child to class as long as they enter the building by 8:35am. After 8:35am students will be considered tardy.
- Dismissal: Dismissal begins at 2:25pm. We are asking all families to remain outside at dismissal and not to release their child from school after 1:45pm.
- Social Media: If you are on Twitter be sure to follow me @principalgrassa. This is a great way to share up to date information about the Curley.
