Fiske Families,
So many things are changing lately. The Fiske Falcons were able to have their first in person all school assembly on Wednesday, parents/guardians are coming in to be guest readers and today Mrs. Holtzman hosted Genius Hour for parents/guardians. It is wonderful to see our community come together after two years.
Genius Hour in 3H
Registration is open and tickets are on sale for “A Night at the Races”, a Kentucky Derby themed auction on May 6th to benefit the Fiske PTO.
Ticket purchase includes an evening out at Wellesley Country Club featuring dinner, a live auction and dancing (bar is a cash bar). It also includes registration for the online Silent Auction which is held the week leading up to the event. Tickets for the event are $75/single ticket or $145/couple. If you cannot attend the event, but would still like to participate in the Silent Auction, you can register using the “Remote Bidder” option (no cost to register).
Visit https://thefiske.ejoinme.org/2022registrationtickets purchase tickets to “A Night at the Races” or register for the Silent Auction (and see the “FAQ” page on the website or more information on activities, dress code, etc.).
Anyone who would like to attend the event and may need financial assistance in doing so should reach out to Michelle DeSantis (desantism@wellesleyps.org).

Third grade students will be taking the ELA MCAS on Monday and Tuesday of next week. We ask that parents have their children get a good night’s sleep and arrive at school by 8:30 a.m. as the testing will begin by 8:40 a.m. Thank you
