November 22, 2024

Hello Cohasset Families,


Keeping with the theme of gratitude as we near the end of November, I'd like to thank our amazing Education Support Professionals (ESPs). November 20th was National Education Support Professional Day and we celebrated our amazing ESPs in each building. We are grateful for our ESPs every day. They support our kindergarten students, our students requiring specific services, and every student they spend time with. They are often the person our students lean on the most and who are the first to celebrate a student’s success or to be there when they’re struggling. All of us depend on our ESPs for their kindness, compassion, and skill for working so expertly with our students. We would be lost without them.


I'd also like to extend my gratitude to everyone who has helped me transition into my new role. While there has been a lot to get used to and learn, everyone has been incredibly welcoming, kind, and supportive. I've enjoyed learning more about the district and getting to know so many wonderful staff, students, and families. I'm excited for what is ahead but want to express my thanks to those who have been a part of my journey thus far.


With gratitude,

Sarah

Purposeful Play & Responsible Risk Taking: November Challenge Purposeful Play & Responsible Risk Taking: November Challenge

zoom_out_map

Keeping up with our Anxious Generation purposeful play and responsible risk taking challenges, I am inviting you in to our November activities. This month, our challenges are:


Purposeful Play Challenge

Take a walk in the woods and run through the freshly fallen leaves OR while you're raking, create a pile of leaves and jump in!


Responsible Risk Taking Challenge

Help or allow your child to make or bake something new for Thanksgiving dinner. Engage in this activity in age-appropriate ways but try to give your student more independence with the baking experience. Maybe letting your child break the eggs is new for them and you, maybe letting your child cut the potatoes is new for both of you, and maybe letting your child make an entire dish independently is new for you and them. Whatever pushes you and your child, take that responsible risk!
