We understand that December can be a tough month financially for families. If paying this deposit puts a strain on your finances, please speak with Mrs. Tingley or Mrs. Riley.
Thanksgiving Feast: We hope all the children told you about our feast. We enjoyed popcorn, butter that they made, and Johnny Cakes (they helped measure and mix) applesauce and water. Mrs. Gray’s class made some homemade Cranberry sauce.
Community Service:
Food Drive: Thank you to the families who contributed to our annual food drive which benefited the Pettengill House in Salisbury, Ma. They were very thankful to be able to restock some of their shelves prior to the holidays.
Placemats for Veteran’s Day: Our local Veterans loved the placemats our children made for their dinner at Michael’s Harborside.
Senior Moments Sing along: On Thursday, December 13th, we will sing some Christmas songs to a group of seniors who meet in the church’s café.
Holiday Cards: Some classes will be making cards for veterans. We are planning to send them to Walter Reed Hospital National Military Medical Center.

Christmas Sing along: On Tuesday December 18th (Mrs. Gray’s class and the T/Th class) and Wednesday December 19th (3-day class) we will have a Christmas sing along for parents in the gym. It will begin at 9:05 am. Hope to see you there!
