Colonial Park Weekly News
January 29 - February 2
Principal's Note
Dear Colonial Park Families -
Thank you so much for supporting our efforts to make Morning Arrival a safe experience for our students. Just a reminder, please pull all the way up before allowing your child or children to get out of the car. We recognize that sometimes the weather is unpleasant, or a vehicle in front might be stopped, but it truly helps keep traffic flowing smoothly and safely. Your patience and cooperation is appreciated!
We are kicking it back to the 80s!!! Monday, February 5, is our 100th Day of School, which means we will have 80 more days to go. Inspired by our friends at Robin Hood, Colonial Park will be celebrating with an 80s Spirit Day on Monday, February 5. Break out those neon colors, side ponytails, and denim...think bold and bright!!
Our next Goldie Gathering is scheduled for Friday, February 2. We will recognize our ST Math Rockstars, and preschool teachers will share their Student Spotlights. We will also celebrate a student as our Community Spotlight, which means a member of our Colonial Park family who works hard to support our community. We are looking forward to gathering Friday morning!
We will continue to have a Hope for Boston's Homeless box set up in our lobby, and the wish list is attached below. We are grateful to our Colonial Park community for your extraordinary generosity.
Attached please find our February Lunch Menu. I hope everyone has a wonderful week!
Best,
Rosa Flynn
