Message from Nurse Mando
Spring is in full bloom! Let’s take a breath of fresh air and enjoy some time outdoors with our kids again. Spring also means tick season in MA, and the best way to prevent tick-borne diseases is through prevention of tick bites. Always check for ticks after outdoor activities to keep everyone safe and healthy!
More specific information can be found on the following websites:

Free Breakfast for all Students- Please see the attached menu below. Breakfast (or snack as it is often referred) is served mid-morning as is available free to all students.
Monthly Menus - Click on WB Food Services to find May's lunch menus. While we wait for locally grown products to grow the cafe is serving strawberries and watermelon from Florida.
Cafeteria Taste Testing- We are bringing back taste testing! Students love tasting a bite of a new dish before choosing it for lunch.
We are growing potatoes! Our Council on Aging Volunteer and garden expert, Mr. Douglas DeCosta, has started some potato plants and we've moved them outside! He's been spending time on Tuesday at Spring interacting with the students at lunch.
