Winter Gym Use 

This time of year we get a lot of 
requests to use the gym for various 
activities from family nights to 
birthday parties to dinners. The 
school committee encourages 
community use of the building 
when it is not being used for school 
purposes. To find out more about 
how to sign up and schedule the 
gym, please call Dr. B at 359-5002. 
There is also a gym schedule 
posted in the gym’s entry way.

The PTF group met last Thursday. 
The meeting notes have been sent

Harvest Luncheon 

Instead of our traditional

presentation related to their first 
trimester harvest topics. If you can 
help with the luncheon, please 
contact Margaret Bixby.
