What is happening at Moretown?

Hello Moretown School Families, 

Here is some news from around the school...

Our Pre-School ECO program in action

The Moretown School has partnered with the North Branch Nature Center to offer an educational experiential program  for our pre-school students on Wednesdays.  The outdoors offers the perfect classroom where student can and practice skills about working together and learning about science through hands on experiences.  This program is a great foundation for our students as they transition to our ECO program for grades K - 3.  Keep an eye out for a video about their experiences with ECO.  

Reminder:  PTN meeting on Monday, September 28 at 6:30pm at the school.  Much to discuss and be a part of!  Come and join our expanding team.  

Reminder:  We only have just about everyone's school data forms for this school year.  If you still have not completed them for this year - please do so as soon as possible.  

Link for reading about Mindset:  Here is a link regarding our SU theme of Mindset this school year.   An easy read with some  important use of words to encourage, not discourage, our students and your children towards the path of growth and learning.  Let us know if you have any questions.

Town Office and Playground Update:   Work will begin on the new town office site on Monday morning, 9/28/15.    Our students will be able to use the soccer fields adjacent to the work site,  but only after the work perimeter is marked and set up with a safety fence.    Grade 4 - 6 will use the playground behind the school or areas up on the hill this is complete.  

At the same time we will begin ground work on the new playground space.  We will be working with the Town of Moretown, Friends of the Mad River, Vermont Rural Partnership, Yestermorrow and community members in the building of our new space.  A design drawing of the new area is posted on the wall as you enter the school.  

It is very exciting!  Let us know if you have any questions.
