Nash Sunday Smores

August 30, 2026

Hello Nash Families,

Hello Families,

We are so excited for the upcoming week and are thrilled to invite our Nash families, both new and returning, back to school. The start of a new school year is always an exhilarating time. It's important to engage with your student and discuss all the wonderful things that will take place during the school year. We are ready to provide them with the most exciting and amazing educational experience.

As we embark on this journey, there are key updates and protocols that we will be reminding families about. Our students' safety is our number one priority, which is why these measures are in place. Please make sure to read about all of them in the information below.

Mrs. McDevitt

Please know that all protocols are put in place to provide the safest arrival and dismissal for our students.

Arrival Procedure

Drop off line will begin at 8:50. We ask that families do not line up any earlier. This will cause traffic to back up into route 18, which will cause a traffic issue.
Please pull all the way up as noted on the diagram provided.
No one should pass any other vehicles on the left and stay in line even if their child has left the vehicle. This is because students exit from each side of vehicles and we want them safe from cars.
If you pull up and come to a stop along the sidewalk, please exit your child there. This allows a quick exit and traffic to move quickly.
You do not need to pull up to the door, their are staff and sidewalks to safely guide students to the door.
We ask that no adults exit car in the line to assist in getting a student out. If your child struggles to get out of the car seat, please continue to pull through the line and park. This allows you extra time and you may walk them to the front door. (And sneak in another hug goodbye)

We will be out there assisting all families. We thank you all for your patience the next few days as our new families learn the routines.

Dismissal

Please refer to the link below to see where your students classroom will be dismissed.

All those that would like to use the playground, please park on the perimeter. The rest may line up in rows. We ask that all cars wait for clearance to leave. It can be dangerous with foot traffic walking through.

Parking will be tight with an additional classroom added soon.

Reminder that the Stetson Building kindly ask us not to park there, Our elderly frequent that building and we have to be cautious and careful as they drive and walk through that parking lot.

Attendance Matters

Please refer to the Weymouth School Calendar as you plan your vacations. It is so important that students are in school learning. Attendance directly relates to students success in school. This is something Nash will be working on this year and look forward to your support.

Classroom Snack Updates

Due to the safety of students with allergies, we asked that all students bring only ONE snack during classroom snack break. When each student brings in just one snack, it is easier for us to make sure the snack is safe for classmates.

Examples: piece of fruit, bag of goldfish, granola bar, gogurt

Please avoid snack that require utensils or more than one thing.

Thank you!

Important Message about our Playground

Please read this important note regarding the playground:

Consistency is so important for our students that we find it important to share with you our playground expectations that we provide to the students during the school day.

We hope this carries over to after school and beyond:

Everyone plays – Every game is open to whoever wants to play as long as those playing are being safe, respectful and responsible during the game. Including others are expected behaviors.

Play safe – Students must play so that they and others are not physically or emotionally hurt. Students must avoid rough play, unsafe play, and name-calling. Examples of unsafe play include jumping from the top of the play structure or sliding into someone still on or near the end of the slide

Be Respectful- Students will listen and follow directions. They will be kind and provide other students an opportunity to use the play structure. Keep hands and feet to themselves.

Have fun and enjoy!
