Fiske Families,
Happy Mother’s Day to all our amazing Fiske Mothers. May your day be filled with love and caring.
This week our fifth grade class was able to visit the middle school. As usual, the lunches were a big hit. Our third grade class went to Boston to walk part of the Freedom Trail. The weather was perfect and they had a great time. Next week the fourth graders will be traveling to the Tsongas Center in Lowell. It is so nice that we are able to take these field trips after 2 years of not being able to travel. Thank you to the Fiske Creative Arts and PTO for funding these trips and the bus transportation.
Our fifth grade students will be taking Math MCAS next week on Monday, May 9th and Tuesday, May 10th. Please be sure to have your child at school by 8:30 a.m. as the testing session begins at 8:40 a.m.
Don’t forget our final Fiske Zoom PTO meeting for the year on Thursday, May 12th at 7:00 p.m.
