MCPE would like to invite all members of the community to its Annual Meeting on Thursday, May 18 at 7:00 p.m. at the Zullo Gallery.  The Annual Meeting includes the presidents' report and recap of all of the grants given in the last year, as well as a celebration of the winners of 2017's Thomas Reis Award, The Robert C. Maguire Award and the Busconi Grant.  For more information regarding the Annual Meeting, proposals funded by the MCPE and the Reis, Busconi and Maguire Awards, please visit our website: www.medfieldcoalition.org.

Park Street Books and the MCPE have teamed up to help you with your spring bookshelf cleaning!  Bring your gently used children's books to Park Street Books for resale, and they will make a donation to the MCPE.  Books in readable but not sellable condition will be donated to Children's Hospital.  Win-Win-Win all around!

Special thanks to Mrs. Russell (Clark's mom) for visiting Ms. Burnham's Health class today to share her human brain expertise.  The students and staff loved it!



Summer Skills Book

Many students have found it beneficial to work on strengthening math and/or language arts skills over the summer months.  For many years we have used a series of workbooks published by a company called Summer Skills.  These books have been successful in helping students practice and sharpen their skills.  Summer Skills Order Info


On behalf of all of the employees at Dale Street, I would like to wish all of the mothers and grandmothers a Happy Mother's Day.  

As always, thank you for taking the time to read the Dale Street School Blog.

Best,
Steve
