Fiske Families,
Thank you to our amazing teachers for hosting conferences over the last two weeks. These conferences take time to prepare in order to provide parents and guardians with information about their child’s academic and social emotional growth. Our teachers are truly Fisketastic.
Thank you to Scott Barton for coming to school to share his musical robots with our students. The students enjoyed learning how to program robots to play a multitude of instruments. It was amazing!
Student Council
The student council is planning an all school assembly celebrating the diversity of our Fiske community. As part of this assembly the Student Council is creating a video that includes all of our students and staff. The Student Council would like to invite families of our students and staff to email a picture of a family celebration, tradition or activity to include in the video. If you would like to share a photo then please email it to Mrs. McGregor at mcgregorr@wellesleyps.org. The deadline for all photos has been changed to Monday, April 8th at 9:00 a.m. For confidentiality reasoning this video will not be shared outside of the school.
