Cole Miners' Dig
February 27, 2026
Principal's Notes
I hope that you were all able to enjoy the extended February vacation week with the added snow days with your family in some way even if it meant cuddling up under a big blanket to stay warm together when the power went out. We are so glad to be back in school!
This week we hosted the Kindergarten Orientation and Information Night for families of incoming kindergarten students. Online registration is now open. Please spread the word to any families who are new to town with incoming kindergarten students.
Norwell High School Peer Educators came to Cole School today to teach a lesson on the power of kind words to 4th and 5th grade students. It would be a great conversation starter at home to ask what they remember from that lesson.
