Dear Farmington River Families,

I’ve attached this week’s newsletter, and there’s so much to share! Inside, you’ll find lots of wonderful photos from our Character Counts Week celebrations and some great classroom highlights, including our kindergarten students having fun learning letter sounds, sixth graders getting creative with history and theater, and fifth graders making comics in computer class. We’re also excited to share news about our $96,625 PRISM literacy grant and the work we’re doing to strengthen reading instruction. Be sure to check out the information about our upcoming Parent Teacher Conferences, Veterans Day celebration, our annual food collection to help local families, and the PTA’s free ski and snowboard program. There are also some fun local events coming up! I hope you enjoy seeing all the great things happening at Farmington River!

Best,
Laurie Flower, Principal
