The K-Kids will start their food drive on November 1 and focus on supporting our school's resource center. This year the students decided to have a COMMUNITY FOCUS and have students in those communities bring in items based on the community they are in. For every items your child brings in, they will be entered into a drawing
BLUE COMMUNITY
Bringing in Snack Items ( Goldfish, animal crackers, pretzels)
GREEN COMMUNITY
Bringing in Paper Goods and Hygiene items
RED COMMUNITY
Bringing in Cleaning Items (glass cleaner, trash bags, detergent)
YELLOW COMMUNITY
Canned Goods or Non-Perishable Items

The D.O.G.S ( Dads of great students) will be meeting next month on Nov 14 at 6 pm at YAMAS. Typically the group will be meeting on the third Wednesday of the month but moved the date in November to adjust for the Thanksgiving Break

Today, we had student athletes from the University of Maine group Male Athletes Against Violence visit our kindergarten students to read Hands are Not for Hitting. They also brought along some special gifts. Kindergarten classes who did not get a visit today will on Friday.

We were pleased to have Louise Martin visit our school today and share with our 5th grade students what her school experience was growing up. Louise has been a generous contributor to our school over the years.
