Dear Moose Community,
It was great to end the rainy week with a beautiful day! Our 5th and 6th graders had a great time at Morse Hill today. They went on ropes courses and participated in activities that built trust and strong relationships! How fortunate we are that Morse Hill is right in Shutesbury!
After feedback from staff and families, we have decided to keep our Open House format from last year! On September 26th, families and students are invited back to school at 6:00 pm for our Open House. Students will be able to give tours of their classrooms and the school. Families will get to meet the teachers, see the classroom and understand some of the learning and expectations of the year. Families will be able to take a walk around the track, visit all the specialist teachers and play on the new playground. The Open House will take place between 6:00-7:00pm. We will gather as a community halfway through to hear greetings from the various committees that make the school run!
We are looking for a parent representative for School Council. School Council meets 4-5 times a year from 3:15-4:15pm to talk about how things are running and what we can do to ensure the continued success of SES. We talk a bit about enrollment, curriculum and activities. The committee has parents, teachers and community members on it. If you would like to be part of this committee please send your name to me (mendonsaj@shutesburyschool.org). If more than 1 person is interested, there will need to be a vote at Open House by the community. If that is the case, you will be asked to speak for a minute to the community about why you are interested. Please let me know if you are interested!
Have a fabulous weekend!
Jackie
