THANK YOU! Dos Lobos AND Frankies Sweet Shoppe!
Heartfelt thanks to EVERYONE who participated in our Bulldog Dine Around with Dos Lobos this month. Because you took the time out, not only did you support a local business you ALSO support our school!

The BPO will receive a check in the amount of $331 just for dining out that day!

In addition, we cannot thank Frankie's Sweet Shoppe enough! We LOVE our candy grams tradition! Over 1,000 pieces of homemade candy were made and sent home AND the BPO will receive a check for $550 !

Dos Lobos and Frankies and all who participated... THANK YOU! True #bulldogpride True #NRcommunitypride

The Roaring 20's Bulldog Bash was just the Bees Knees :)
CLICK HERE: The Pictures say it ALL! ( Kathleen Ivy Photography, Batch Parents Chris and Kathleen, thank you for donating your time and talent to capture such amazing pictures that evening!)

Thank goodness its never too late to say THANK YOU! Though I shared on social media, I wanted to be sure to share with those that may not be within our FaceBook group, especially our teachers!

I prepared formal remarks for that evening, but if you were there, people were having too-good-of-a-time to be interrupted for long. Here's what I would've shared:

Time.
Without question.
The greatest gift.
If you told me three years ago that I'd be standing here...
Again...
I would've laughed.
Like you, I'm here for our kids... it's simple really.
We don't get this time back.

Might as well have THE BEST TIME while supporting those we'd do just about anything for.
I would not be standing here without the leadership at the Batch. Mr. Killeen. Thank you.

Thank you for trusting me and all of my insane ideas to further fund and enhance your already incredible teachers and staff.

Teachers and staff, I don't know how you do what you. You're incredible and we're here tonight raising money to support you both in and out of the classroom.

My volunteers there are SO many of you! Thank you does not seem like enough. When 90% of your committee is the same committee from the centennial 2.5 years ago... there are not enough words! Thanks for making me look. Not sure where I'd be without each and everyone of you.

House Minority Leader Brad Jones, Town Administrator Mr. Gilberto, School Committee Members Dyana Boutwell and Scott Buckley. Thank you. Thank you for your support and thank you for what you do for our children, our schools and our community day in and day out.

To our sponsors...as a non-profit, every dollar we get to keep goes right back to our children. Thank you for supporting us and helping to offset costs. To the guest in the room, please take a look at that Donor and Sponsor board and use these services and businesses!

To every staff member at the  Four Points by Sheraton Wakefield Boston Hotel & Conference Center  WOW. The level of customer service is unlike anything I have ever experienced. From the front of the house to the back of the house. There was not a request that was not fulfilled and anytime you could go above and beyond. You did. I cannot wait to come back and have another event with you!
NuImage Entertainment  are there even words? Peter, Mike, Napoleon and the entire NuImage family, NO one does what you do for an event! Thank you SO much for yet another incredible production.
To my fellow parents, family members and friends here tonight. Thanks for showing up. This is more than I could've ever imagined. There are SO many new faces in the room! Also, a HUGE special thank you to my Batch Alumni parents who don’t even have a kid at the Batch anymore who are here.
This is what it means to be a Bulldog! Part of THE most amazing community (in my opinion) just about anywhere. True  #bulldogpride πŸ’šπŸ’›πŸΎ

Premiere Sponsors

Finally, to my guest dealers, my teacher volunteers and insanely incredible Batch parent graphic design team: Joyce Cosentino Wells,  Jessica Faulkner  and donor and printer of our sign boards, former Batch parent Dan Mills, SO thankful! Jess. the Batch Bulldog with his fedora will forever be my fav!
With sinceappreciationion and heartfelt thanks,
