News From the Principal - November 20, 2008

Kids Voting: During the November 4th’s elections, students were given the opportunity to participate in the Kids Voting program at Bartlett Elementary. Pinardville students were able to come to school to vote for president and some items that pertain to them. The results of the election were:
Who do you want for our next president? Barack Obama
What is your favorite lunch? Fun Fish Nuggets
What is your favorite thing on our new playground? Infinity Web
What was your favorite Jennifer Ericsson picture book? She Did It!
What color do you want the 100-day reader t-shirt to be? Lime Green
What is your favorite sports team? The Red Sox

Reminder: Next Wednesday, November 26th, is an Early Release Day, in which students will be dismissed at 12:45. This will give families a head start to enjoy their Thanksgiving.

Thanksgiving Lunch: I would like to thank our cafeteria staff, Cheryl Nault, Denise Ouellette and Jennifer Kaminski and their volunteers for serving the students a delicious Thanksgiving meal yesterday. Each student was given a free meal that included turkey, sweet potato, mashed potatoes, stuffing, vegetables, gravy, rolls and pie for dessert. We are truly thankful for everything our cafeteria staff does for the students each and every day.

Early Release (Dec. 3) & Delayed Opening (Dec. 4) for Parent-Teacher Conferences: Please remember that we will be having Parent-Teacher Conferences the week after Thanksgiving. This is a good way of finding out how your child has adjusted to school after the first trimester and is progressing academically, socially and behaviorally. If you haven’t already, please contact your child’s teacher to schedule your conference. And remember, if you have any questions or concerns during the year, please do not hesitate to contact your child's teacher to set up another conference.

Have a Happy Thanksgiving!
