Greetings Dale Street Community,
It is hard to believe that we only have two school weeks before February vacation, especially with all the hard work and determination that students and staff continue to display here at #beproudbedale. I am so proud of each and every one of them! Please take a minute to see some photos from this week, as well as stay up-to-date with some important school information.
Over the next 2 weeks, Dale Street fifth-graders will be diving deep into discussions with people from the Neponset River Watershed Association on water conservation and stormwater. Big thanks to the Town of Medfield for funding this important program.
Students and staff are invited to participate in the Dale Street School March Madness Free Throw Shooting Contest. The contest begins Tuesday, February 27th. Click here for more information. Registration deadline is Friday, February 9th.
As a twist to their learning this week, Grade 4 classes walked up to Starbucks and back to give a real-life look at how far a kilometer is. They walked it, timed it, thought about it, and now can relate to it! 📏
Valentine's Day is fast approaching....very exciting! To ensure the safety of all of our students and staff, we are requesting that no food/candy be sent in with Valentine's cards. If a student decides to bring in Valentine's, there should be one for every student in their class. On Wednesday, February 14th, students will enjoy a “Party in a Bag!” Have your child decorate a brown paper lunch bag with a Valentine’s theme. Once decorated, fill it with a few of your child’s favorite food items. Some examples are: juice box or mini water bottle, small salty snack, fun sweet snack (cupcake, cookie), additional items could be a piece of fruit, a small yogurt, or any additional healthy snack. Adding a little note to your child's bag will definitely make them happy! Head Room Parents will be coordinating a game or craft during snack time for this day.
PreK-5 Spirit Day - February 14th - Show Your Love ♥️
On February 14th, we will be having our next PreK-5 Spirit Day. Our theme is “Show Your Love” and our goal is to help stock the Medfield Food Pantry with items that are greatly needed at this time of the year. Please consider donating any of the following items. A drop box will be available in the Dale Street lobby. Thank you for your help!
● Tuna (solid white, in water)
● Ensure or Boost (vanilla or chocolate)
● Jelly/jam (12 or 18 oz)
● Creamy peanut butter
● Individually portioned snacks
This week with Mrs. Nawrocki in PE, Grade 5 students created challenges as they wrapped up their unit with hoops.
Congratulations to Dale Street's Artist of the Month for February!

Last Friday, Dale Street fifth-graders participated in Kids’ Night Out. Students enjoyed lively music, a hula hoop contest, snacks, and a photo booth! Huge thanks to the Dale Street PTO for organizing this event and all the dedicated volunteers who made it possible.
Congratulations to this week's Positive Referrals!
