Fiske Families,

Wow it is cold out there! Winter has arrived and the groundhog tells us it will be here for another six weeks.  With that in mind,  please make sure your child/children come to school with appropriate cold weather gear.  Please contact our social worker, Michelle DeSantis, at desantism@wellesleyps.org if you are in need of boots, hats, mittens, or coats.  Stay warm!

 

Please do not park on Hastings Street in front of the Fiske School or lower parking lot during arrival or dismissal.  It makes it very hard for cars leaving the lower parking lot and for buses to drive past the school and enter the lower parking lot.  Car line is the best option for picking up your child unless they are walking home.

 

A huge thank you to Dorota Strzelecki and Rebecca Sisitsky  and all their volunteers for organizing a wonderful family fun night of BINGO.  It was so nice to see our community come together to have fun and support our school.  It was FISKETASTIC!

 

During music our fourth grade students are studying the life of Harriet Tubman.  On Wednesday, February 8, 2023 at 8:45 a.m. they will be presenting their concert The Life of Harriet Tubman.   Please come join us to hear this wonderful performance.

 

Coffee

Do you want to learn more about Fiske?  Hear about your child’s day in school?  Have your questions answered? Bring ideas to our school?  Then please join the Principal for a ZOOM coffee break on Thursday, February 9th at 8:45 a.m. The Zoom link will be sent out on Wednesday.
