Dear Community:

Happy Friday!  There is no school on Monday, June 19.  Enjoy the long weekend.

Our P.E. teacher, Ms. Fachetti  did an awesome job planning a successful all school field day on Tuesday.  The students and faculty seemed to have a terrific day!  

All School Field Trip:  We will be going to the Hawley State Forest for an all school field trip on Friday, June 23, 2023.  Students will go on a short nature hike, visit the town buildings,  and learn about the history of Hawley.  Please make sure to check your child’s  folder to fill out the permission form for the field trip..

On our last full day of school, Monday June 26, we will be holding an ice cream sundae social from 12:50 to 1:30. Families are welcome! This is a thank you for your gracious cooperation and support of your children during our Screen-free days in May.
