Reminders and Peer Mentoring

Dear Sprague,

Welcome back!

Please note the following for Tuesday, November 5th:

1.  Dismissal is at 12:00 pm on Tuesday, November 5th due to Parent/Teacher Conferences (tomorrow).

2.  Walk-to-School Day is Tuesday, November 5th from approximately 8:15 am – 8:30 am (tomorrow).

 

Peer-Mentoring Opportunity:

The Peer Mentoring program pairs selected Wellesley High School students with interested Sprague students.  Once a week, high school mentors come to Sprague to help students with homework and other needs.  This is a great opportunity for your child to receive additional help with homework after school on a regular basis! It also allows children to build a positive and supportive relationship with a local high school student.

For Whom: Sprague students

Where and When: At Sprague every Tuesday from 3:05pm to 4:00pm.  This program will run from November 19th – December 17.  These are the scheduled dates for the program: Tuesdays: November 19, 26; Dec. 3, 10, 17

Note: The program will take place in Ms. Blumenthal’s room (Room 113).  Ms. Blumenthal and Ms. Perry will be supervising.  Students are welcome to bring a nut-free snack.

If you are interested in having your child participate, please email Ms. Blumenthal with your child’s name and current teacher  (blumenthall@wellesleyps.org).  Once she knows the exact number of high school students that will be volunteering, she will begin accepting Sprague students. Please watch for a permission slip in your child’s backpack. It will be on a first come, first serve basis.

Pick up will occur at 4:00 p.m. sharp in car line.
