Hi Delaney Families,
This week's blog is filled with great photos and information about things happening at the Delaney School. Please enjoy.
The 5th Annual Family Literacy Night will be held on Thursday, April 4th from
5:30 PM - 7:30 PM in the Roderick School. Teachers from the Delaney and
Roderick Schools have put together a wonderful evening for all students.
Creative and exciting new programs have been added this year as well as some of
the most popular activities from previous years. In addition, literacy night
will include author/illustrator Natalie Douglas who will be assisting with a
watercolor painting activity. Our PTO will again be organizing a book swap in
the cafeteria. We hope to see you all there!
On Wednesday, the Freedom Trail Scholars Program visited the Delaney School. Our 3rd graders participated in reenactments of the Boston Tea Party, Paul Revere's Ride, and the Boston Massacre as part of their ongoing learning about the Revolutionary War. The MTA sponsored this program. Thank you!
Positive Referrals!
Congratulations to the following students who received Positive Referrals this week. They were recognized for being incredible role models, showing exemplary behavior, and helping others. We're so proud of them!
Check out the happenings in our preschool classrooms!

On Tuesday,
April 2nd, the Delaney School will be participating in World Autism
Awareness Day. Students will be receiving stickers to wear throughout the day,
blue balloons will adorn each of the entry ways, and the event will be
recognized by our students during morning announcements.
Buildings around the world, including
the Empire State Building, participate in a unique global initiative called Light
it up Blue. Check out some of the locations that have “gone blue” to bring
awareness to autism. http://www.lightitupblue.org/Markslist/waysToLight.do?pageId=361
From the PTO...
The Spring Fundraiser (Yankee Candle & Mixed Bag catalog) sales will go through next Friday, April 5th. The money raised by the PTO is used to run activities such as Literacy Night, subsidizing student field trips, and much, much more. The classroom with the most sales will receive a pizza party! Thank you in advance for supporting our PTO.
