Volunteers Needed
-
As Deb Buhler and Sneha Patel continue to build a great PTO team, the following parent volunteers are needed for:
-
Social Committee Members
-
Fifth Grade Parent Committee
-
If interested please email spraguepto@gmail.com
Extra Masks
-
It would be most helpful and appreciated if students can come to school with extra masks, please
-
We have noticed that the paper masks are easily breaking
-
As a result, Chris Babicz is happy to supply extras, which quickly depletes the supply
-
As always, thank you!
Instrument Instruction for Grades 3-5 Students
-
The Performing Arts Department is opening up registration for students interested in learning a band or an orchestra instrument
-
The lessons can be done in-person or remotely
-
Attached is a copy of the safety guidelines for after-school lessons
-
In music class, conversations are being had about each of the instruments, and am so excited to see that many of them are really interested in exploring this option
-
If you would like more information, there is a link on the attached flyer. It also has a QR code which will bring you directly to the registration site.
-
If you have questions about financial aid for these lessons, or any other issues, please don’t hesitate to contact Brittany Hitchcock, Sprague Music Teacher (guest teacher for Katie Dexter)
The instruments are:
Flute, Oboe, Clarinet, Saxophone, Bassoon, Trumpet, Trombone, Euphonium, Tuba, Percussion, Violin, Viola, Cello, Bass
Absence Reporting
-
Thank you for your help with the new absence reporting system!
-
It is working very well and we are grateful!

We please ask that you record your child(ren)’s absence on the day of the absence versus prior to the absence

THANK YOU – This is a huge help to us all!

If you have confidential medical information please email the school nurse at babiczc@wellesleyps.org
