Hello, October!

With the start of October comes the falling leaves and cooler temperatures. There is definitely a chill in the air.

Thank you to all of our families for a successful Welcome Back Night. It is one of our favorite events, because we get to welcome all of you into the school to get a glimpse into your child's day! The night was filled with lots of smiles and excited children.

A big thank you to ALL the volunteers who gave up their time this week to make the bookfair a success. There is something so special about the Scholastic Book Fair. We love it all - the smell of new books, the excitement of students, the cool pens and chocolate calculators, and of course the hard lesson of taxes.

We have a busy few weeks coming up, so be sure to read below for some important information.

Have a great week!

This Friday, October 7th will be an EARLY RELEASE. Students will be dismissed at 12:25PM. Please remember that any changes to your child's dismissal plan should be sent in writing to the teacher.

If you are sending an email, please CC the front office:

Diane Tremblay - dtremblay@attleboroschools.com

Lisa Frolio - lfrolio@attleboroschools.com

At this point, we are hopeful that most people have downloaded the APS app. Once we work through some of the difficulties transitioning to this new system, it will be well worth it! Following these steps will allow streamlined communication from your child’s teacher.

What do you need to do?

1. Download the APS app.

2. Set up your Rooms account. You can do this in one of two ways:

• Follow the directions in the email that was sent to your email on 9.28. It was sent from accounts@edurooms.com
• Use the “magic code” provided by your child’s teacher. Reach out to your child’s teacher if you need the code.

Video demonstration on how to navigate the APS app:

All families who have set up their Rooms account by noon on Friday, October 7th will be entered into a raffle.

Communication will continue to be shared weekly through our newsletter. They will be shared on the Studley website as well as the app. Be sure to set the app to allow notifications.

Be sure to check out the following throughout the week:

• Meet the Staff Monday - Each Monday we will share out some biographies of our staff. This is an opportunity to learn about who we are!
• What's Happening Wednesday - Each Wednesday a team will share some of the highlights of what they are working on in school. This will allow us to share more about the great learning experiences that are happening at Studley.

Both of these will be shared on the Studley website or the APP!

It is that time of year again when we are looking to form our School Council. This group is made up of SES staff, parents/guardians, and community members. We meet monthly right before the PTO meeting. The purpose of this group is to work together on ways to improve our school.

If interested, please email me at lboyle@attleboroschools.com.

Based on interest, we may need to hold elections.

We are in full swing of planning our Fall Festival, which will be held on Saturday, October 22nd.

At this event, we will be looking for families to "host" a trunk at our trunk-or-treat. Start thinking now what your theme could be. I have included some pictures of last year's trunks to give you an idea.
