Final Stay & Play – May 30th - Register Now
! Our last Stay & Play of the year is happening on Thursday, May 30th, from 3:15 until 5 PM. We'll be celebrating with bounce obstacles and a visit from the Kona Ice truck! Siblings are welcome to join in on the fun. Just a friendly reminder: this is not a drop-off event—a parent or guardian must be present with children for the entire time. It’s a perfect opportunity to sign up and volunteer at the event! If your child plans to attend, please complete the dismissal form (one form per child). Note: Dismissal changes for Stay & Play will not be accepted after 9 AM on Thursday, May 29th.

Show Your Appreciation for Vinal Staff! We are loving all the amazing donations thus far - from custom art, to red sox tickets, to monetary donations - we are so appreciative - and the teachers are going to be over-the-moon! As a reminder we're organizing an End-of-Year Staff Raffle during the final week of school. Every staff member will receive raffle tickets for a chance to win fun prizes—a small gesture to show how much they mean to us. We’re accepting donations of raffle items or monetary contributions (on the website or venmo @vinalpto) to make this event special. Contributions can be dropped off at 15 Old Oaken Bucket. Thank you for helping us make this a memorable send-off for our incredible team!

Gratitude Garden! This week is the last chance to submit letters of gratitude for the teachers online - the wall is really blooming - let's fill all the blank space! This is a wonderful way to highlight the impact of our staff as we wrap up the school year.

You can submit your appreciation notes via the PTO website, have your child write a note in the lobby or take a flower home and bring it back. Feel free to recognize a specific teacher or staff member—or keep it general. Either way, your words will mean so much!

5th Grade Families - get your Send-off consent forms in! In order to attend the AFTER PARTY, you must complete this RSVP & Consent Form by Friday, May 30. We hope every fifth grader comes to celebrate the end of elementary school with their classmates; it's going to be legendary.

Field Day is June 5th! Sign up to volunteer or for the dunk tank! We're looking for enthusiastic volunteers to help make the day a blast — and a few brave souls willing to take the plunge in our dunk tank! Whether you want to run a game station, pass out popsicles, or get soaked for a good laugh, we’d love to have you involved. Sign up today to help make this Field Day unforgettable! (And yes, dunk tank heroes get extra bragging rights.)
