Tuesday Woof - 5/10

Thank you for all the love and appreciation shown to our faculty and staff last week. Our school nurses were also celebrated, but they get their own day too, a day dedicated to the special role of the school nurse: tomorrow, Wednesday, 5/11/2022! If Nurse Driscoll or Nurse McDonough has made a difference for you, we encourage you to write them a quick note or a kind email thanking them and celebrating their special approach.

The Braintree Public Schools' METCO program is holding a design contest to create a unique, expressive new logo! Submissions can be sent to braintreemetco@braintreeschools.org. Contact METCO Director Renée Smith with any questions.

June is Pride Month, and the South GSA is coordinating a Book Club to close out the school year. Order your copy of The Witch Boy by Molly Knox Ostertag and feel free to join in the conversation on Tuesday, June 14, after school in Room 109. All are welcome! (Caregivers can check out a Common Sense Media review of the book here.)
