Dear Families,

As many of you know, I was out during the past week. I’m on the mend now and will be gradually returning to full days over the coming week. I want to express my gratitude to the staff for pulling all things together and keeping a very even keel for the students despite being stretched with other staff absences as well. I also want to express how grateful I am to Bridport and Cornwall for lending us extra time with Dani Girard and Jackson Goscha over the week. Their presence was deeply appreciated.

C30 transfer student news: Friday afternoon I received confirmation that Malek Borni from Shoreham will be joining the first grade next year and Shepard Robinson from Ripton will be joining the 5th grade. No students are transferring out of Weybridge.

Friday, April 3, 2:00-2:45 - Grandfriends Tea: Grand Friends Tea is coming up this Friday, April 3, 2:00, a much loved tradition! Your child’s grandparents or grandfriends are invited to visit the school. Delicate sandwiches, cookies and tea served in our fine collection of dainty cups and saucers add to the decorum and fun of the event. If your child has grandparents or grand friends, please invite them and rsvp to Rachel rchapman@acsdvt.org.

No worries if your child does not have someone to invite. Several elders from the community are also invited and we will match them with children who do not have a grandfriend. We do ask that parents not come as their child’s guest. Let me know if you have questions.
