Dear Bates Families,

Thank you to our amazing Bates PTO gardening crew and all the volunteers who spent this week weeding, planting, and spreading fresh mulch in our garden beds.  Thanks to their hard work, our landscaping looks beautiful, and we’re all so grateful for their time and effort!

Superintendent David Lussier officially announced the last day of school during Tuesday’s School Committee meeting. The final day for students will be Friday, June 20, and it will be a half day.  Please note that Wednesday, June 18, will now be a full day of school for students.

I hope you have a wonderful weekend!

Warmly,

Toni Jolley
