Dear Sprague Families,
As the Ramadan holiday comes to a close this week, wishing those that honor and recognize Ramadan, best wishes during Eid-al-Fitr.
Thank you to both staff and families for their collaboration during conference time. The students are very lucky to have both staff and families always in their corner.
Congratulations to our grade four students for completing round one of MCAS testing. Each worked very hard and put their best foot forward, which is all we ever ask for.
Congratulations to 192 students for walking/rolling to school during our April Walk/Roll-to-School Day. Thanks to the many parent volunteers for making it happen!
April vacation is right on our heels – unbelievable!
