2024-2025 FRES Newsletter Archives
Dear Farmington River Families,
As we enter the final stretch of the school year, our mid-May newsletter is full of exciting updates and celebrations! This month, we’re highlighting great work from Grade 5 and EK, and sharing updates from Music and Instrument Lessons as students prepare for their performances. We’re also looking ahead to our upcoming school musical and the Flying Cloud program joining us on May 23, which promises to bring even more creativity and learning to our school.
The PTA recently helped us to celebrate Staff Appreciation Week, and we’re proud to share a special congratulations to Caroline and Paige, who both graduated with their Master’s degrees and are now licensed teachers in Massachusetts. What a wonderful achievement!
Also in this edition, don’t miss the recap of the Grade 1 and 2 field trip to Hancock Shaker Village, as well as lots of important information about upcoming school events and fantastic community activities happening throughout the area.
Thank you for being such an important part of our school community as we wrap up this incredible year together!
Sincerely,
Laurie Flower, Principal
