The Cardinal Connection

Hello Cardinal Community,

Our last day of school is Friday June 13th! It is a regular schedule for all of our students. It is hard to believe that the year has come to an end. Watching your students grow and change this year has been such a wonderful gift! Whether your student is heading off to kindergarten, leaving the district or returning to the Cardinal in the fall, we will certainly miss seeing each and every student each day. Please see below for some useful community resources.

On behalf of the entire Cardinal Community, I wish you all a wonderful summer!

My warmest wishes,

Kerry Wilcox

Principal at the Cardinal

Car Safety is extremely important! All of our students should be properly buckled into a car seat or booster seat every time they travel in the car. This also includes younger siblings.

There is an opportunity for families to receive a free car seat or booster seat if you participate in a 1 hour virtual car safety training. It takes place on June 25th from 1:30-2:30 virtually. If you are interested, click on this link, complete the intake form for NFI Family Resource Center and note on that form that you are interested in the car seat safety class. You will be sent a link to participate.

Please reach out the me, Jennifer WIlliams, the school social worker, with any questions. (978) 446-7000
