Notes from Eddy
June 7, 2026
Hello from Principal Guditus
Hello Eddy Families,
Congratulations to Ms. Brekke's class on winning The Great Eddy Reading Challenge! They collectively read an impressive 186 books from May 1 to June 1. You can see the proud class and teacher below with the golden book trophy!
A huge thank you to Ms. Smith for a terrific field day, and thank you to our parent and caregiver volunteers and our staff for their help to organize and make the event a success. Students had fun, engaged in team building, and enjoyed the beautiful weather! As usual, we ended the day with tug of war and a visit from the Brewster Fire Department for a spray from the fire hose!
On Thursday, we had a visit from Nauset Regional HS Seniors, who visited their elementary and middle schools to walk through as proud graduates! We played pomp and circumstance for them, cheered them on, and wished them well! This fun tradition is great for our Eddy students to see older students who worked hard, were determined, and made it to high school graduation!
We continue to have lots of field trips now that the weather is good, including a trips to Pleasant Bay, Crosby Beach, the Grist Mill, and Boston. At school, we remind students that these field trips are a wonderful extension of our curriculum, and it takes hard work by teachers and fund raising by the PTO and donations from many people to make this happen! Students are expected to be Eddy READY on the field trips, including the bus rides. I have been so proud of our students this spring, as they have shown what it means to be Eddy READY in and out of school.
Finally, in case you missed it, there was a meeting of the Efficiency and Regionalization Study Team on Thursday evening, June 4. At that meeting, the team shared their findings from their year-long study. You can find more here: https://sites.google.com/nausetschools.org/efficiency-and-regionalization.
Here's to a great week of learning at Eddy!

This request is for students to come to school with appropriate footwear for playing at recess and during PE class. We have had many students with abrasions/injuries because they are wearing inappropriate footwear for active play at recess. If students plan to be active during recess, students should not wear flip-flops, crocs, or uggs if they plan to climb on the playground structure, play basketball or football, or play a game on the field. If students would like, they may certainly bring sneakers to change into for recess or PE, and then change back to other footwear. Thank you!
