Enrichment Updates

The PTO has some exciting programs lined up for this spring, with more on the way!

Zoo New England will visit every classroom across several dates in April and May. Zoo educators will bring two "animal ambassadors," giving students the chance to see live animals up close while learning about them:

• April 28 - Grade 4 & 5
• May 6 - Grades K & 3
• May 13 - Grades 1 & 2
• May 20 - Grade 1

On Friday, May 1, author Brian Lies will visit grades 4 and 5 to lead his writing workshop, "The Worst Thing I Ever Ate." Brian is the author and illustrator of more than 30 children’s books, such as his New York Times bestselling bat series (Bats at the Beach, Bats at the Library, etc.), and his 2019 Caldecott Honor-winning The Rough Patch.

The PTO will also continue to fully fund field trips this spring. Keep an eye out for more details from your student's teacher as trips are planned!
