It was wonderful connecting with families during last week’s parent conferences and book fair. Your involvement in your child’s education is truly invaluable, and we are so grateful for the time, commitment, and partnership you bring in supporting their success.

Veterans Day Parade

Veteran's Day is on Monday, November 11th and there is no school for students as it is a day to celebrate the men and women who have served our country. The staff and students at Morris Elementary would like to celebrate our local Veterans with a special Veteran's Wave Parade on Friday, November 8th at 9:30 AM! Students will line West Street and give our local Veterans a wave and a cheer to thank them for their service. If you know a local Veteran, please feel free to share information on this special event. Students should dress in red, white and blue. Please see the information on the flyer below. THANK YOU Veterans!

Greetings from the Library! On Saturday, November 9 at 2:00 p.m., we will host a pre-release screening of the documentary film Banned Together, the first completed feature film to cover book banning, censorship, and students’ fight for intellectual freedom, particularly in relation to the rights of marginalized students in the United States.

This program is free and open to the public, and will take place in the Lenox Town Hall Auditorium, located at 6 Walker Street, Lenox. A Q&A with director Kate Way will follow the screening.

Best,
