Don't forget about the UPP Gala Fundraiser on Saturday, February 13!  A letter has gone home to families filling you in on the details of the event.  Music by the Dave Keller band as well as a live and silent auction promise for a fun filled evening!  Childcare coordinated by our own wonderful Katrina Phillips as well as Matt McLane and MHS will be available.

Class prompt #1:  Welcome to 2016!  Take a look at the goal you set for yourself at the beginning of this school year.  Where are you on that goal?  What steps do you think would help you move towards it?  If you feel like you have met that goal, what are new goals you have for youtself?  Make sure to write at least 3 full sentences and edit for spelling and punctuation!

Welcome to 2016!!!

Welcome back!  I hope everyone is coming back from this break feeling refreshed and rejuvenated!  As we look ahead into the weeks ahead I wanted to let families know that we will have a visiting artist working with our fourth grade in early March.  Judy Dow is an Abenaki artist and ethnobotanist. She will be working with our students in a study designed to help our students learn about Vermont, specifically Montpelier and it's land and people.  One of the projects that Mrs. Kane along with Mrs, Dow will be doing is making some very beautiful art.  In order to do so, we will be asking families to send in used large yogurt or cottage cheese containers (cleaned, please) along with scraps of yarn.  So- don't throw those containers out!  We will gladly take them!
