Happy Sunday Harrington Families!!

April wrapped up quick! I want to take a moment to reflect on the many wonderful moments we’ve shared and look ahead to an exciting finish to the school year.

April was a busy and productive month in our school community. Our students have been working hard in their classrooms, showing growth in both their academic skills and their character. This month, we placed a special focus on the character traits of grit and perseverance. Students learned the importance of sticking with challenges, learning from mistakes, and continuing to try even when something feels difficult. It has been especially rewarding to see their determination, resilience, and kindness on display each day.

We also enjoyed several special activities this month, from the STEAM Fair to taping me to the wall last Thursday. From engaging classroom projects to school-wide events, students had opportunities to collaborate, explore new ideas, and celebrate their learning. Thank you to our teachers and staff for creating such meaningful experiences, and to our families for your continued support.

As we move into May, there are several important events to keep in mind:

MCAS will continue with Math for Grades 3 & 4 this week and next week. Please help your child come to school well-rested and ready to do their best.
Spring events include Field day this coming Friday, and end-of-year celebrations, are just around the corner. More details will be shared soon.
Teacher Appreciation Week is this coming week, and we encourage students and families to help us recognize the incredible work of our staff.

This is also a great time to reinforce strong routines at home—consistent attendance, reading each night, and staying organized will help students finish the year strong.

Looking Ahead

As we move forward in May, we will continue to build on the strong momentum established this past month. Thank you for your continued partnership and support in making Harrington such a positive and connected school community.

If you have any questions or need support, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

Thank you for your partnership and for the trust you place in us each day. Harrington is stronger because of the families who support it.

Once again, remember to…"Stay Respectful, Stay Responsible, Stay Ready . . . . Embrace the challenges, learn from mistakes, and have fun."

Be safe! Stay well!
