Students in Ms. Daigneault’s 6th grade science class worked in small groups to write poetry inspired by images from the Nikon Small World photo contest galleries. This project connects to their exploration of microscopes in science class.

Students in Ms. Willoughby and Ms. Poulin-Kerstien 8th grade science classes created wanted posters for invasive species. In this project, students identified and researched invasive species as a culmination of their evolution unit. Check out their awesome posters below.

Next Friday, March 29th, will be a half day for all schools. Middle school students will be dismissed at 11:30 AM.

Don't forget about our exciting Attendance Incentive Program aimed at encouraging consistent attendance and participation among our students! The program is designed to incentive students who consistently attend school on time and actively engage in their learning journey.

Here's how it works:

Each Monday, we will hold a special raffle drawing, with one winner per grade level with consistent attendance from the week prior. These students will have the chance to win a delightful gift card to Dunkin’ or Starbucks, a perfect treat for a well-deserved break or a delicious snack!

Consistent attendance is crucial for academic success, and we believe that acknowledging and celebrating this commitment is essential. By participating in our Attendance Incentive Program, students not only have the opportunity to win fantastic prizes but also cultivate habits that will serve them well in their academic and personal lives.

Thank you for your continued support in promoting a culture of attendance and engagement at our school. If you have any questions or suggestions, please don't hesitate to reach out to us.

There will be an informational middle school golf meeting on Thursday, March 28th, in the middle school cafe from 2:30-3:30 PM. All students interested in playing should attend!
