Good Shepherd School
November 6, 2026
Mother of Hope
Through a variety of low-element challenge courses, grade 7 & 8 students worked together, navigated different challenges, encouraged one another, and enjoyed a beautiful day with their friends. From problem-solving to supporting their teammates, our students put teamwork into action and created some wonderful memories along the way!
Paint Day
What a wonderful day of creativity, fun, and making memories! Our students had an amazing time participating in Paint Day today, enjoying the opportunity to express their creativity and create something special. Thank you to our Amazing PTO and Mrs. Nolan for making this happen!
All Souls Day
This morning, our students gathered together in prayer for the souls of those who have passed during our Luminary Prayer Service. During this quiet and meaningful moment students prayerfully remembered their loved ones and all who have gone before us.
Save The Date
Meadow Farms Fall Fundraiser products will be delivered to Good Shepherd on Thursday, November 19th. All items will need to be picked up that date. More information to follow.
In the event that your child will be absent, late, or dismissed early, please contact the school office (401) 767-5906 by 9am so our office staff can inform your child's teacher of their absence or end of day dismissal changes.
Cellphone Policy
As a reminder for all students, cellphone use during school hours is strictly prohibited. If students need to reach out to parents, they must go to the school office during break time to make the call.
Changes of dismissal should not be make through text message during the day as it becomes a challenge during end of day dismissal.
All cellphones and Apple Watches should be kept in your child's backpack (turned off) during the school day to avoid disruption during class time. Thank you for your understanding in this matter.
