Thank you Veterans
Welcome back after a day of reflection and appreciation. Thank you to all our community members who have and are serving our country.
Things are quiet at school this week, but we have lots coming up in the week before and after Thanksgiving. Next week we have the Winter Sports meeting at 6pm on Wednesday and the annual Musical, The Addams Family, Thursday through Saturday. When we return from break winter sports kick into full gear and conferences round out that week. We hope to see you at these events.
ipads and Tablets at PA
We have noticed an increase in use of ipads and tablets during independent and class time at Peoples Academy. These devices are not permitted at Peoples Academy. They do not meet the district’s Bring Your Own Device , nor Cell phone policy* expectations. If you have a student who needs additional support or access to a school Chromebook please reach out to the main office.
The purpose of this restriction to help maintain a positive, inclusive, and productive school environment. *Also, if personal computers are used to access phone applications (apps), they will also not be allowed.
Project Graduation
Senior Families, If you would like to help plan or support Project Graduation there is still time. If you are interested in joining the committee or would like to learn more, please reach out to shellycitron@gmail.com. Together, we can continue this tradition and give our graduates the safe and memorable celebration they deserve.

What is the Lamoille.Findhelp.com site?
It's an original resource and REFERRAL tool for basic needs like housing, food, utilities, and transportation. The emphasis is on referrals, because not only can you find information about hundreds of organizations on the side, you can also refer yourself or others and make a direct connection with those organizations.
The site is free to use and has information about local (e.g. neighborhood food shelf), state (e.g. Department of Health), and ational (e.g. Veterans Affairs) resources. It can also be translated into over 100 different languages.
