Highlights from the Past Week<\/div>\n
On Friday, our mascot Hero the Husky visited classrooms that hit their Paws target. Shhh\u2026don\u2019t tell Hardy students this top secret (that some of you already know) – kudos to parent volunteer Jennifer Saull, who comes in each Friday and puts on the Hero costume and accompanies me to classrooms to congratulate students.<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n

Save the Date: Presentation on A.I. for families<\/div>\n
On Thursday, Feb. 12, from 7:00-8:00 PM in the high school auditorium, there will be a presentation on A.I. for WPS families. This will be led by Greg Kulowiec, who is a highly respected expert in the field of A.I. in education. Here is a description of the event:
AI emerged nearly three years ago and all learners and educators became members of an experiment that no one was prepared for. This presentation is designed to help parents and guardians better understand the technology, the impact on the learner, their brain and both the risks and opportunities presented by generative AI. Presented from the lens of a parent and educator, Greg will help families enhance their understanding to be prepared to have better conversations around this technology.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Library Volunteer Opportunity\u00a0<\/div>\n
Support our growing readers! With over 900 books cycling in and out of the library each week, our school library is looking for a few volunteers to help keep our shelves organized. This ensures our students can always find the books they\u2019re looking for quickly and easily! Even a “pop-in” visit just once or twice a month makes a huge difference in keeping things running smoothly for the kids.\u00a0
If you\u2019re interested in helping please send a quick email to Mrs. Perriello at perrielloe@wellesleyps.org<\/a><\/a>\u2014we\u2019d love to have you!<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Have a great week!<\/p>\n
