Principal Madden’s Weekly Update—Week of March 9, 2020

Principal Madden’s Weekly Update—Week of March 9, 2020

March Greetings!

March is Music in our Schools Month, and we will celebrate with our annual music concert. Our music teacher, Mrs. O’Connell, has been helping all of our students prepare for the concert. It takes place on March 10 at 9:30. We hope to see you there!

Science Night

If you missed the Science Night Information Night, you can still make a project. Tri-folds and information are in the school office.  You do not have to do a project to have fun at science night, but creating a project is fun, too! Science Night is March 12 at 6:30.

Questions? Contact parent, Kate Lepore at:

khlepore@gmail.com or (413) 539-4159

COVID-19

I hope everyone received the district letter that was sent on Friday regarding the COVID-19. Don’t hesitate to call if you have any questions. We keep washing hands and stepping up hygiene here at school.

Photos

This week’s photos show some of the fun we had during Read Across Ryan Road week. Thank you for helping your children remember to dress up for our special days and supporting their efforts in the Read-a-Thon (if they were interested).
