Hello Dale Street Families,
What a fantastic week! On behalf of the staff at Dale Street, a HUGE thank you to our incredible PTO and all the families who donated time, funds, and food. It has been a very challenging year for sure. However, I am continuously blown away by the kindness and compassion families have displayed. We appreciate your support - it means the world to us! Check this out...
Congratulations to our Positive Referrals this week for demonstrating Dale Street's Core Values!
Dale Street Student Council Food Cupboard Drive
When: Now thru Tuesday, May 25th
Where: Drop off in boxes outside the main office.

**Students who bring in items get a raffle ticket and get to place their teacher's name on the back of it. At the end of the collection, one ticket will be selected from the 4th-grade jar and 5th-grade jar to get an extra recess!
Dale Street's MCAS test sessions begin next week. It is most important that students attend school on the days of testing, so please plan appointments in a way that does not interfere with your child being in school on the following testing dates:
ELA
Grade 5 - May 11th
Grade 4 - May 12th
Math
Grade 5 - May 18th
Grade 4 - May 19th
Science, Technology, and Engineering
Grade 5 - May 20th
Ms. Chamblin's fifth-grade students took time this week to compare and contrast the elements in two texts. Our students were very impressive in displaying literacy critical thinking skills - Bravo!
The Dale Street Math Challenge is on! Students are free to solve as many problems as they can and will have about a week to turn in their work. Students can hand in a hard copy of the challenge to the office or email it to Mrs. Perachi (bperachi@email.medfield.net) prior to the due date.
More information, including a calendar of important dates and a link to download and print the challenges and solutions, is available here. Questions regarding the math challenge program can be directed to Dale Street math specialist, Mrs. Perachi.
