Greetings Delaney Families,
I hope that you all had a great week!
With 9 days already completed, I'm happy to report that things are off to a great start and that everyone is settling in to a new school year.  We are looking forward to seeing you all on Wednesday, September 18th for Open House.  A reminder of the specific times for each grade level is posted below.

                                 Grade 2:  5:30 p.m. - 6:30 p.m.

What's Happening?

On Thursday, the Delaney School held a Patriots Spirit Day in honor of the first home game.  Students and staff alike were dressed in their favorite Pat's jersey and/or red, white and blue.

Positive Referrals


Congratulations to the following student for receiving a Positive Referral this week!  This second grader helped a new kindergarten student who had left her backpack on the school bus.  Great job!



The Positive Referral program was started several years ago as a means to recognize students who are making great choices and modeling the schools' Core Values.
The Wrentham Public Schools' Core Values include:
Respect
Responsibility
Collaboration
Communication
Continuous Growth & Learning





Kindergarten Free Lunch
Friday October 3, 2013


On Friday, October 3rd, the Food Service staff will be offering Kindergarten students an opportunity to try the delicious and nutritious school lunch for free!

Menu
School Made Pizza
Cheese or Pepperoni (Made from Turkey)
Garden Salad with Lite Italian Dressing
Carrot Sticks/Apples from the Big Apple/Milk

Other main entrée choices that day are
Chicken Patty, Chef Salad or Bagel with Sunbutter, Jelly and Cream Cheese along with all of the other fruits, vegetables and milk listed above.




At our September Faculty meeting, the Delaney and Roderick School teachers were fortunate to have Kym Meyer, Educational Audiologist/Teacher from the Outreach Partnership Program at the Learning Center for the Deaf,  present on the topic of Students with Hearing Loss in the Public Schools.  The information shared was both enlightening and extremely beneficial.


                                                        

Something to think about...
At the end of each term, we will be holding a Principals' Coffee. Typically these gatherings last approximately an hour with a prescribed topic followed by open discussion.  Principals' Coffees are held at 8:30 a.m. on a Friday (the first one is scheduled for November 8th) in the Vogel Auditorium.  Mr. Grenham and I are always looking for topics that are of interest to our families.  If you have any ideas or suggestions, please let me know. Thank you in advance.

Thank you for reading.
Have a great weekend!

Sincerely,
Melissa D. Peterson
Delaney School Principal
