November 5, 2015

Hello Memorial Families.

It was so wonderful to see so many of you last Friday for our Halloween parade.  I would to offer a huge thank you to Chris Allan for donating his services.  As a result of his generosity, Memorial's preschool, kindergarten and grade one students were able to march around the building while listening to a great compilation of spooky and fun Halloween music.I would also like to thank the many volunteers including our head room parents and all who contributed goodies for the classroom parties.

Please enjoy a few pictures from the day.

Veterans' Day Assemblies
On Thursday, November 5th, students in kindergarten and first grade attended a Veterans' Day assembly sponsored by the PTO.  The children talked about the meaning of liberty, freedom and sacrifice. They also learned about symbols of freedom and the five branches of the military.  Thank you to Chief and Cadet Wilson for visiting our school and for their service to our country.








Important Safety Reminder
Within the past few weeks, there have been several instances of cars driving from the North Street parking lot (MAP) through the playground and out onto Adams Street.  This has been occurring both during school hours and after school as well.  These areas are gated off for our students' safety and are for emergency use only.  Thank you for your cooperation and help in keeping the children safe.

Have a wonderful weekend and as always, thank you for reading.
Sincerely,
Missy Bilsborough
Memorial School Principal
