PTO
It’s becoming that SPOOKY time of year!!!
As we get ready for the annual Halloween Party and village trick or treating, we’d like to ask that if anyone would like to donate candy to the local houses we will collect it at the school and at town hall between 7:00 and 3:00 on weekdays.
If you are interesting in volunteering at the party or providing a snack for the party please email moretownpto@gmail.com . Village Trick or Treating will be extra special (and safe) this year since the fire department will be placing a truck at both ends of the 100b!

Event: Oct 14, 2019, 6:00 PM to 7:30 PM
Hannah's House is pleased to welcome Michael Ungar, PhD, one of the world's leading authorities on resilience in children, young people, and adults to speak about parenting and resilience on Monday, October 14th at Waitsfield School.
In his new book "Change the World", Dr. Ungar explores real lives, across age and culture, and discovers that the answers lie in the people and the support systems around us. Supportive spouses, caring families, nurturing employers, and effective governments are very often the difference between individual success and failure.
Dr. Ungar is the founder and Director of the Resilience Research Centre at Dalhousie University. His ground-breaking work as a family therapist and resilience researcher is recognized around the world. He lives in Halifax, Canada. His full bio can be found here.
