Happy November Little School families!

Hard to believe we're already nearly two months into the school year already! Hopefully everyone had a wonderful (warm!) Halloween and much candy to share this week.

The PTO has been busy so far this school year! It was wonderful to see so many Little School families attend our first Fall Fest on September 15th. We had almost 100 families attend, and were entertained by DJ Phil, pre-ordered pizzas from Anthony's in Reading and many crafts, snacks and games for all. Big thank you to Kim Begley, Sabrina Coviello and the events team for putting this event together, and to all who attended!

Now that we're closing in on Thanksgiving, it's all about the desserts! On Tuesday, 11/23, we'll have cookie dough from Rebecca's Nut-Free and Thanksgiving pies from Kathryn's confections ready to be picked up! (Cookie dough orders are closed, and pie orders run through 11/12). This has been a great fundraiser and community service opportunity for the Little School; we are the sole provider of fresh fruit pies for the North Reading Food Pantry again this year, and hope to send more than 50 pies home this year!

Keep an eye out for upcoming enrichment opportunities this year; we're able to have smaller groups of students gather in appropriate spaces (no all school assemblies yet!), which will surely be welcome for all our students.

We hope to see you at our next virtual meeting on Wednesday November 17th at 7pm. Keep an eye out for the Google Meet link!

Warmest wishes.
