Dewing School Digest

Hello Dewing Families,

Dewing School Expectations:

I would like to share a 3 minute video with Dewing Families. It outlines the Dewing School Expectations with some footage from our first Assembly where we reviewed the expectations and modeled our expected behavior. We hope that by sharing this, families can help reinforce Safe, Respectful and Responsible expectations with their students. https://youtu.be/qvmTShRWQ9c

Veteran's Day Assembly

We will host our annual Veteran's Day assembly on November 14th at 1:45. If you or one of your family members is a Veteran and you would like to participate in the Assembly, we would love the opportunity to honor you for your service. Please connect with Mr. Waldron at swaldron@tewksbury.k12.ma.us

Have a great long weekend! We look forward to seeing your students on Tuesday!

Warmly,
Mrs. Bosworth

I have heard that there have been a number of families whose emails from our staff have gone to spam. Here is a solution from our IT department:

1. Mark as “Not Spam”

• If they find your emails in Gmail’s Spam folder:

  • Open the message → click “Not Spam”.

  • This trains Gmail to trust future emails from your domain.

2. Add District Email to Contacts / Safe Senders

• Ask parents to add the sending address (or @tewksbury.k12.ma.us domain) to their Contacts.

• In Outlook/Yahoo/etc., they can also add the domain to their Safe Senders list.

4. Check Promotions / Updates Tabs

• In Gmail, messages sometimes land in “Promotions” or “Updates” instead of Inbox.

• Parents can drag the message into “Primary” — Gmail will ask if it should always do that for future emails.
