ART SHOW & ICE CREAM SOCIAL

We are looking for two or three more volunteers to help at the Ice Cream Social from 6:30-7:30 PM on June 6th to scoop ice cream or 7:30 PM for clean-up.  Please contact Karen Odell, if interested (blackdog2000@sbcglobal.net or call or text 860-307-9700). 

 

Mrs. Dubecky would also like help putting student artwork up around the school in preparation for the Art Show.  Please send Mrs. Dubecky a note or call the school office (860-379-2179) if you are able to help.

 

CAMP JEWELL DAY ON THURSDAY, JUNE 13TH

School will be held entirely at Camp Jewell YMCA—rain or shine--(6 Prock Hill Road in North Colebrook) on Thursday, June 13th.  The school buses will pick the children up as usual in the morning and will drop them off at Camp Jewell.  The students will be picked up there in the afternoon at 3:15 PM.  Do not drop your child off at school in the morning (drop them off at Camp Jewell, if needed) and remember that if you need to pick them up in the afternoon, you will have to pick them up at Camp Jewell.  Children will not come to school at all on that day.  Bus drop-off times in the afternoon may vary slightly from the normal time since the buses will be starting at Camp Jewell and not at the school.  NOTE:  Any child who wishes to ride their bike to and from Camp Jewell will need to bring in a note in advance for this specific day.

 

 Lunch will be provided by Camp Jewell at no cost to you.  Please have your child wear appropriate clothing for the weather and outside activities.  No swimming will be allowed.  Also, please put bug spray and sunscreen on your child in the morning before they leave the house.  Permission slips have been sent home, so please sign and return them as soon as possible.  If you have any questions, please call the school.

COLEBROOK HISTORICAL SOCIETY IS SPONSORING A SHAKESPEARE WORKSHOP
