Dear Parents & Families,
This week we had a great visit to the Thetford Volunteer Fire Department. Thank you to the TVFD volunteers and specifically to Moriah Whitcomb for the great presentation and fire safety reminders. Please remember to check-in with your family at home to ensure you have a safety plan in place for a meeting place in case of a need of an evacuation of your home. Also, please remember to change your smoke detector batteries! It was a great reminder to me.
We hit 30 days of school this week! We completed our All School Meeting for this school year. Great work to all of us for succeeding at this accomplishment so early in the school year!
Thank you for those families who have decided to join us for our Field Trip to Cedar Circle Farm on Wednesday, October 18th. We plan to depart TES at 10:45 am. Chaperones can join us on the bus or meet us at the farm. Here is the link for information about the trip. If your child will need a bag lunch from the cafeteria for that day please be sure to let me know by Monday, 10/16.
