Greetings Memorial-Spaulding Families,
I hope the new year is off to a good start for you! We are now back into a good routine at school. When I visit classrooms I find teachers presenting outstanding lessons and students who are fully engaged in learning.
As you may know, the City of Newton has proposed an override measure to support various aspects of city operations – including school funding. We would like to invite you to a special forum to learn more about the override proposal. Please join us on Thursday, January 26th at 8:30 AM for an in-person event here at Memorial-Spaulding. This meeting will go until about 9:30 AM. Guests will include: Interim Superintendent, Dr. Kathleen Smith and School Committee Chairperson, Tamika Olszewski. Coffee will be provided. Please join us! (If you need translation services for this event send an email to ell@memorialspauldingpto.org and specify the language needed.)
Kindergarten Information Night is coming soon! February 28th @ 7PM. This event will be virtual. If you have an incoming K student and/or you know families of incoming kindergarten age children, please pass along this information. It is important that we know about all new students arriving in the fall in order to appropriately plan staffing levels for our classrooms. Click HERE for more information.
The SPACE Summer Program is now accepting students for summer 2023. Interested in learning more? Click HERE for info.
Do you have a child in kindergarten of 1st grade who rides the bus home from school? If so, HERE is some important information for you.
Unclaimed items in our lost and found have now been donated to a charity. However, items will accumulate again quickly. Please be sure your child’s name is on all items coming to school. This is very helpful when we are attempting to reunite items with their owner. Many thanks.
As always, thank you for supporting your child’s academic, social-emotional and artistic growth. I wish you a lovely evening.
Tom Morris, Principal
