Fiske Families,

 

A huge thank you to Mrs. Gerst who coordinated a Fisketastic field day for our students.  Thank you to all the parent/guardian volunteers who helped to make this event a success.  

 

Thank you to Jen & Frank Fortuna, Allison Khalamayzer, Jenn Cohn, Rice & Jessica Bryan, and Thomas Martz for taking care of our gardens at Fiske.  They look amazing.

 

As we plan for next year, it is important to update our community on the changes for our school.  We will have 15 sections of classes next year.  This is the list of sections and teachers for each grade level;

 

  • Kindergarten will have 2 sections – Mrs. Brophy, Ms. McLeod

  • First grade will have 3 sections-Mrs. Humphrey, Mrs. Kritharis, Ms. McShane

  • Second Grade will have 3 sections- Mrs. Holtzman, Mrs. Mendoza, Ms. Gayner

  • Third Grade will have 2 sections- Mrs. Floyd, Ms. Rodger

  • Fourth Grade will have 2 sections – Mrs. Giorlando, Mrs. Hanlon

  • Fifth Grade will have 3 sections – Ms. Healey, Ms. O’Sullivan, Ms. Whalen

 

Sections are determined by enrollment. Please know we consistently review the enrollment numbers. Our district guidelines are K-2 can have up to 18-22 children per class. Grades 3-5 can have up to 22-24 children per grade level.  

 

Some of our beloved teachers are leaving us but will be remaining in the WPS. Mrs. Mark will be teaching Kindergarten at Hunnewell,  Ms. Devereux will be teaching fourth grade at Schofield, and Mr. Campbell will be moving to WHS.  We thank our teachers for all they have done for our Fiske students and wish them all the best for next year.
