Principal Lima's Eagle News

This week, our Grade 4 students did an amazing job completing their ELA MCAS—way to go! We are so proud of their hard work and focus. Next up, we will be wrapping up Math MCAS for Grades 3 and 4—please see the dates below for those sessions.

Our Grade 2 students had a wonderful time on their field trip on Tuesday to see Cat Kid—what a fun experience! We also loved seeing all of our students dressed their best for spring pictures on Thursday—everyone looked fantastic.

It’s hard to believe we only have 5 days left before April break! With that in mind, next week is a busy one:

• Our Scholastic BOGO Book Fair will be running all week
• The Family Night Event will take place Tuesday from 4:00–6:00 PM in the library
• Our Drama Club will be performing their play Tuesday and Wednesday evening (see flyer below)

We will wrap up next week with the PTO Semi-Formal Dance on Friday from 4:00–6:00 PM—we hope to see many of you there!

We wish everyone a wonderful weekend, and as always, please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions or concerns.

Sincerely,

Mrs. Katelyn Lima, Principal (klima@drregional.org)

We are working on the 2026 Yearbook and memory messages are now open! This is such a special way to celebrate our kids as they finish elementary school. You can write a message and add a photo for them to look back on for years to come.

Memory messages are due April 14th — see the flyer for details and instructions!

Students in Mrs. Grillo's class did a musical carousel to review Poetry, Prose and Drama. When the music stopped, they would stop at a card and determine if the text was a piece of poetry, prose or drama. They all CRUSHED the review and demonstrated a strong understanding of the skill while having some fun!
