Hello Dale Street Community!
It is amazing to think that next week is the last week of March. Time certainly flies when you are having fun. What a wonderful week! Check out some of the awesomeness from our #beproudbedale students and staff this week......
This morning, Grade 4 students in Ms. DiPesa's classroom facilitated a fantastic student-led Social Emotional Learning assembly sharing calming strategies students could use when they become upset. Bravo!
Congratulations to this week's Positive Referrals!
Thank you to all the Dale Street families who came out to Family Literacy Night earlier this week. There were so many amazing opportunities for the students and their families. Special thanks to Jamee Callahan for organizing such a great event, our fabulous PTO, the wonderful volunteers, Jim James, and the many, many families who attended!
For the month of March, the Dale Street Student Council has voted to collect items for Boston Children's Hospital! The Student Council is asking students to bring new (packaged) arts and crafts materials as well as gift cards elementary-aged students may be able to use. We will begin collecting on Monday, March 6th, and will continue until Thursday, March 30th.
Thanks to our Friday DJs who kept the lunchroom rockin' today.
The PTO is launching a month-long "Dale St. Class Library Stock Up Event" where they will be collecting donations to buy books off Teacher Wishlists.

Another week - another group of fourth grade students enjoying the PTO-funded Root Robots. This week, Dale Street Technology Integrationist, Mr. Ahern visited Ms. Isaacson's class to introduce this fun learning tool. Needless to say, they were a huge hit!
Are your kids excited yet?
MCPE’s annual Spelling Bee will be held on Tuesday, March 28 at the Medfield High School auditorium. Students in grades 2-5 will practice T-E-A-M-W-O-R-K while putting their heads together to spell increasingly challenging words. All while in costume, of course. This Spelling Bee is always a ton of F-U N!

Help us paint the town blue!
Have you been spotting all those blue mailbox ribbons around town and wondering how to get yours? There’s still time to make a gift to the MCPE 35th Anniversary Appeal! Through the 35th Anniversary Appeal, MCPE is raising community support to fund one ambitious project at each of the five Medfield schools that will make a real difference in our students' educational experience. Every Medfield residence that makes a charitable contribution to the 35th Anniversary Appeal will receive a blue ribbon placed on their mailbox, showcasing support for Medfield Public Schools and proudly helping us paint the town blue!
DALE STREET SCHOOL is seeking funding for a movable soundproof partition in the library and maker space that will allow for more flexible use of very limited space. This wall will allow the excitement, collaboration, and student growth to continue in our Makespace while providing a more quiet academic setting in our Library.
Your donation today will support this project and the projects at the other four Medfield schools. Click here to learn more and donate today!
Scientists at work!!! This week, students in Grade 4 started their unit on waves. In the photos below, students in Mrs. Dowd's class and students in Mrs. Scott's class had the opportunity to create their own telephones to demonstrate moving voice vibrations. Well done!
Movie Night
The School Committee and the Medfield Energy Committee are co-sponsoring the movie “Catching the Sun’ on solar energy. Solar energy is an important part of Medfield’s Climate Action Plan. Learn how the transition to solar power is taking shape in many diverse communities.
The movie will be shown twice - Monday night March 27th at 7pm in the Medfield High School auditorium and again on Sunday, April 2nd at 1pm in the Medfield Library meeting room. Please join us.
Respect * Compassion * Collaboration * Continuous Growth
