We hope you had a chance to see the Northern Lights, go for a hike, or enjoy time together this long weekend! Friendly reminder: school is closed tomorrow in observance of Indigenous Peoples Day.
Join us for the Bates Movie Night on Friday, 10/18! This year we're excited to show Inside Out 2, on Kelly Field, next to Bates. If you haven’t been to our movie night before, the kids absolutely love it! BYO lawn chairs, blankets, and take out/drinks/snacks. Giving the kids glow sticks or dressing them in a light colored article of clothing never hurts.
Because we believe in giving back and we know 1 in 3 children in Massachusetts are at risk of experiencing Clothing Insecurity – we are holding a Cradles to Crayons drive. They provide children from birth through age 12, living in homeless or low-income situations, with the essential items they need to thrive. Donating is easy - place new or gently used clothing, jackets, shoes in the Cradles to Crayons collection bin near the Bates front entrance from 10/21-10/31!
Final reminder that our first All Parent PTO Meeting is on October 22. This meeting will be virtual. Keep an eye out for the zoom link and agenda in next week's Blast.
