Dear Moose Community,
We have completed our fall conferences! It has been wonderful to see so many family members coming into the building. We appreciate the strong family/school connections we continue to have at SES. Please make sure to reach out to your child's teacher with any continued questions.
There are several exciting events coming up at SES! On Thursday November 15th we will have our 2nd Annual Family Folk Dance Night from 6:30-7:30! Our wonderful music teacher Hannah Berube is organizing and facilitating a fun evening of folk dancing. This was a major success last year! Families and students are invited to join in on the dancing. Please come!
On November 17th the PTO Thanksgiving Fun Run on our fabulous track will take place! There have been fliers in previous Roadtown Newsletters and one is in this edition as well! Please encourage your student to take part in this event. Hopefully the weather will be sunny and crisp and it will be a fabulous autumn event!
There is no school this Monday, November 12th in observance of Veteran's Day.
Have a fabulous weekend,
Jackie
Hello! The art studio is in need of the following materials:
-LARGE cardboard (like from large appliance boxes)
-cereal boxes
That's it for now!
... but if you happen to have art supplies that you don't use or interesting materials just laying around your house, I am happy to take it for the classroom.
Thanks!
Beth

A big thank you to all who donated time and delicious baked goods for the PTO bake sale that happened during town voting on Tuesday of this week. Our collective efforts raised over $800 for the many programs and wonderful teachers at SES that the PTO supports. Thanks also to Maryanne Antonellis of Spear Memorial Library for once again giving us the opportunity to do this bake sale during the election.
Please join us for our meeting next week-Wednesday 11/14 from 7-8 in the SES library. We always welcome new people and ideas. Feel free also to email the PTO at [email protected] if you have any questions or ideas.
