Kindergarten Registration Information - Volunteers Needed: Alcott is in the process of Kindergarten Registration planning for the 19/20 school year. We are gathering the list of student names eligible for Kindergarten in the Fall. If you know of someone in your neighborhood that has a Kindergarten age child, and has not heard from Alcott School, please ask them to call the school office at 978-318-9544. Kindergarten Registration packets will be mailed out on March 22nd.
Mrs. Atkinson is in need of volunteers to help out on the Kindergarten Registration days, Tuesday April 23rd and Tuesday, April 30th at 1:00 and 2:00 PM. If you can help for an hour or more on either of those days, please email Cheri Driscoll at cbdriscoll@comcast.net. It should be a fun time greeting the students and their parents while collecting the appropriate paperwork. Thank you!
Original Works.! Original Works is a school-wide fundraiser/art sale. Your child has created artwork in school as part of his or her regular art class- these masterpieces (or a new creation) can be turned into a keepsake of your choice (ex: mugs, ceramic tiles, and magnets- prices range from $5.50-$36) Next week, please be on the lookout for an order form with your child's artwork in their backpack. You can check out Original Works online at www.originalworks.com. Please contact Jane Baldini with any questions.
THE ALCOTT LOST & FOUND NEEDS YOU! Folks, winter has taken its toll on the Alcott Lost & Found—the count is now up to 80+ gloves/mittens/hats, 30+ jackets, 30+ sweatshirts, 20+ water bottles, plus many other items. Please have your student check the L&F regularly for any missing items. ALSO, PLEASE LABEL your student’s belongings with her/his LAST NAME: any labeled items are regularly returned to the student’s classroom.
