Plympton Family Update
September 5, 2025
From the Plympton Admin Team
Dear Families,
We had a great week with our youngest penguins, our Kindergarten students, joining us! Routines are being established and classroom communities created. It's wonderful to see such excitement from our students!
A few reminders:
If you are driving your student to school, please do not park in the lot by Leary Field. We need those parking spaces for staff as our school lot is tiny.
Students may only ride the bus they are assigned through the Parent Information Center. This bus is determined by the student's home address. Busses can not be ridden for playdates, etc.
Upcoming events!
**All events at Plympton require students must be accompanied and supervised by an adult. No drop-offs.
- Our fabulous PTO is hosting a Back to School Ice Cream Social on September 10 from 5:30 to 7:00pm.
- September 25th is Plympton's Multicultural Night! Join the Plympton community in celebrating a multicultural potluck night! Bring a dish to share or just join the fun. Sign up at bit.ly/ply2025 or return the slip below by Friday September 19.
- Back to School Night is October 9th - more details will be shared soon!

Have a great weekend!
