Wow, was there a lot of awesomeness packed into this last week of January! Take a few minutes to scroll through and check out some of the scenes.....
Some of our incredible fifth grade students, accompanied by Mrs. Lowerre, Mrs. Callahan, and Mrs. Bassett, were selected to participate at the 2020 LearnLaunch in Boston today. What a great honor! These students did an amazing job sharing the innovative learning artifacts they have created at Dale Street! They had a blast sharing with educators how these activities enhanced their critical thinking and analytical skills. Bravo, young learners!
The students in Ms. DiPesa's fourth grade classroom, Ms. McKenzie's fifth grade classroom, and Ms. Condon's fifth grade classroom have been very busy preparing for our next Core Values assembly. Today, they filmed Superintendent of Schools, Dr. Marsden and Boston Celtics President, Mr. Gotham to hear their ideas about Continuous Growth. The school is so excited for next Friday's assembly!
Congratulations to our Positive Referrals this week. Thank you for making our school such an amazing place! We are very proud of you!

Valentine's Day is fast approaching....very exciting! In an effort to ensure safety for all of our students and staff, we are requesting that no food/candy be sent in with Valentine's cards. Teachers will be sending out information in the coming weeks to detail specific classroom celebrations. The Head Room Parent will be coordinating this effort. Each classroom will have a 'Party in a Bag'. Once again our very generous PTO will provide a brown bag to every student at Dale Street. These bags will be distributed on Friday, February 7th. Please have your child decorate (if they wish) or simply print their name on the brown paper bag. Please return the brown bag on the day of their classroom celebration filled 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! The snack time and Valentine's themed activities will take place at different times depending on students’ schedules and will be planned/overseen by classroom teachers. Thank you in advance for your assistance to help create a fun and safe day at Dale Street!
This week Medfield School Resource Officer, Michelle Manganello began a unit with Grade 5 Health classes. Over the next few weeks, Officer Manganello will describe her role as a police officer, and help students with public and personal safety.

No time to make your own bowl? Choose a handmade bowl at dinner, fill it with delicious soup donated by local restaurants, and take your bowl home with you! All ages welcome!
While advanced sign up is required, payments can be made via cash, check, or Venmo at the door.
Last year was a lot of fun and we raised almost $2000 for the Medfield Food Cupboard! Please feel free to reach out with any questions and we hope to see you there!
