Dear Senior Parents:
There will be a virtual senior parent meeting on January 18 at 6:00 pm. We will be sharing information and dates about upcoming senior events. We will also be discussing ways parents can help to make these events memorable for the class of 2023.
Please be on the lookout for an email from Shannon Martin. It will include the link to join the Google Meeting. If you did not receive the email today, January 10, or if you have any questions, please contact Sarah Griffin (sgriffin@sau43.org) or Heather Kerin-Herrick (hkerinherrick@sau43.org)
We look forward to seeing you all on January 18!

On November 15 Got Lunch received word that we are chosen to receive $1 for each Give Local reusable bags purchased at Shaw's Newport in December for $3. What an Earth friendly way to help Got Lunch: buy a reusable bag and take your groceries home. Then if you don’t need the bag, donate it to Got Lunch for delivering our groceries to food-insecure families.
Got Lunch is a group of volunteers who put together food boxes/bags for families all summer long and prior to vacations. If you purchase any of the bags, you can drop them off in the main office at school and we will get them to the program's coordinator.
Student Council is hosting a cookie bake-off this month! Raffle tickets for students to have a chance to judge the cookies are $3 for one or $5 for two. Tickets will be sold during advisory and by Ms. Bilodeau. Judging will take place Monday, December 19 in Ms. Bilodeau's room.
