Weathersfield Weekly

Windsor Southeast Supervisory Union is currently looking for substitute teachers to work at our Hartland, Weathersfield, and Mount Ascutney School Districts. Substitutes would be responsible for carrying out sub plans for students in grades PK-12 and communicating with the absent teacher any feedback from the day. Interested candidates should fill out an application and/or submit their resume to Teena Canfield, HR Director at teena.canfield@wsesu.net. Employment is subject to passing a criminal background check. WSESU is an EOE.

Students in Mrs. McCutcheon's fifth grade class had a great lesson on animal skulls. Working in teams they were skull sleuth detectives looking at the parts of a skull and figuring out what animal skull they had to explore. The teams created a menu of items that the animal would eat at a restaurant to try to have other teams guess their animals. Thank you to all of the volunteers that help out with Four Winds and make these great lessons come alive to our students.

Thank you to everyone that attended our Family Dance. It was a huge success and everyone that was in attendance seemed to have a great time. Thank you to our PTO for sponsoring such a great community building experience.

Winter activities will resume on Friday, March 3rd. Remember all students have an early release day, so that they can attend their Winter Activity. Here is a document with everything that you need to know for winter activities. Please reach out if you have any questions. We are excited to have students participating in different activities.

The cast for The Little Mermaid Jr. has been rehearsing and working on getting ready for the show. They have been putting in the hard work at school and practicing at home as well. I am excited to see the show in March. Students started rehearsing this week and have an intensive schedule to get them ready for the performances on March 24-25. Looking forward to bringing the arts back to Weathersfield. Please plan on joining us for a great night of musical theater. .
