From Mrs. Condron, our Social Emotional Behavioral Coach
Hi King Families!
This month's character trait of the month is Compassion! During this month, classrooms will be learning about how we are different and how we are the same, with a focus on showing compassion on ways we are different. Some books that are used to support these lessons are Stella Brings the Family, Families, One, Red: A Crayons Story and Whoever You Are. If you have any questions please feel free to reach out to me, Alicia Condron SEB Coach, at aheymann@framingham.k12.ma.us, James Bergeron, Principal, or Julie Gelardi, Assistant Principal.
Spring Concert: May 28th
Math Challenge
Look here for this week's challenge, and ask your students if they tried it this week!
Family Pickup/Drop Off Reminder
If a bus is stopped in front of the building letting students on/off of the bus, they will have their stop sign out. It is illegal to pass the bus when the stop sign is out. As always, please use caution when driving on school property and be sure to pay careful attention to adults directing traffic.
From King Social Workers
Daniel's Table has provided a freezer for the King School community to access. There are available individual meals and family meals (which include a protein, vegetable and soup). Contact the school social workers to access these meals from Daniel's Table.

LOOKING FOR PTO CO-PRESIDENT AND FAMILY HELPERS!
We are still looking for someone to fill the Co-President leadership position! :)
Additionally, we could still use some family helpers to serve as Portuguese and Spanish liaisons, a club coordinator, and a multicultural fair coordinator next year.
If interested, please contact ptokinginfo@gmail.com. Thanks so much!
FUN FRIDAYS AT KING!
Each Friday join us after school on the playground for play, socializing and community building! No need to sign up, just show up and enjoy!
Children must be picked up from school and accompanied by a caregiver to the playground. This is for all grades and all family members. It's about having fun and building community and we hope you can join us as often as possible!
Feel free to reach out with any questions or if you have a fun idea we can try and add in to our Fun Fridays! Maybe someone has corn hole they don't mind bringing, everyone loves chalk and bubbles, or maybe someone has a special talent like juggling they want to show off or teach to others....
We are excited to spend Fridays afterschool with you!

Family Pickup & Drop-off Reminders
- Reminder: If you are dropping your child at school prior to 9:05, please be sure to go around the building and drop at door 18 (in the back). Please do not drop in the front of the school unless you are after 9:05. This is a safety issue due to the many cars and busses coming in/out of the property. Thank you!
- IMPORTANT REMINDER: If you are making any changes to your child's daily dismissal plan, please call our main office at (508) 782-7201. You may also email Yenitza Vargas, Office Manager at yvargas@framingham.k12.ma.us or Erika Leite-Amaral, Assistant Office Manager at eleiteamaral@framingham.k12.ma.us . If you email a dismissal change to your student's classroom teacher, please be sure to CC the office staff as well. We ask that all dismissal changes are communicated to us by 2:20 PM to ensure consistent, efficient, and safe dismissal procedures for all students, staff, and families. Thank you!
