We celebrated our last Positive Referral breakfast of the year on Friday. Thank you to all of the families who attended and special thanks to our cafeteria staff for providing the delicious refreshments. Congratulations to all of the Positive Referrals who attended the breakfast and congratulations to all who earned a Positive Referral this year!
On Thursday, graduating seniors from Medfield High School visited Dale Street to walk the halls and receive cheers and high fives from our students. The students and staff really liked seeing the 'big kids.' We even had some siblings! Good luck Seniors!
On Wednesday, fourth graders in Ms. Isaacson's class spent time during science observing various soils and predicting where they are found...mountains, deserts, or forests? Any guesses?
Field Day is scheduled for Thursday, June 6th (Rain Day, Friday, June 7th). Mrs. Nawrocki and Mrs. Laughna are planning an exciting day of activities for our 4th and 5th graders. Grade 5 will participate in Field Day during the morning (9:00 - 11:15) and Grade 4 will participate in the afternoon (12:00 - 2:15). Both field days will begin with the 50 yard dash and an all class relay. Field Day will take place on the field between the Dale Street and Memorial Schools. After the races, classes will begin rotating through six stations. Classes will rotate with their classroom. All activities will take place on the field, in the gym and on the blacktop. Parents are welcome to join us to watch and cheer on their children.
We have found it to be helpful to:
**have students wear comfortable clothes and sneakers on this day
**apply sunscreen before coming to school. Please provide more sunscreen for re- application.
**send children with a hat and extra water on this day.
Classes will be eating bagged lunches. Students may bring their own bagged lunch or purchase a bagged lunch from the cafeteria. Note: There will no other lunch options on this day.
Congratulations to this week's Positive Referrals! Thank you for making Dale Street such a great place!
This week, husband of a former Dale Street librarian, Darla Scharlacken visited our school to donate a book and made a very generous donation to our school's library. A HUGE thank you to Mr. Ray Scharlacken for his generous donations to the Dale Street LMC!
Dale Street hosted a Parent Information Night for incoming 4th Grade parents/guardians on Wednesday evening. We shared this 'day in the life' video, held breakout sessions, and walked the halls with parents/guardians. It was a great opportunity to meet our future families!
Check out Crazy Hair Day in Mrs. Nee's classroom last Thursday!
Be sure to ask your child about the Core Value assembly that was presented by Mrs. Crable's class on Friday. Her class presented all of our Core Values (Respect, Compassion, Collaboration, Continuous Growth) and students sang along with Mr. Mason's Core Value rendition of John Denver's Country Road. Check out the words below. It was really awesome!
