November News
4/5 Program
Happy November From The CASP 4/5 Team!
As the leaves change and the weather cools, we're excited to welcome a new month filled with fresh starts and exciting new beginnings.
The Annual 5th Grade Haunted House was a tremendous success! I want to thank the fifth graders who worked hard throughout October to prepare for it. We raised $870 for the American Red Cross Hurricane Relief Fund and greatly appreciate all the donations!

TURKEY TROT & FAMILY FEST
TURKEY TROT
The Annual Turkey Trot occurs on the Monday before Thanksgiving. Each program (K/1, 2/3. 4/5) takes a turn 'trotting' a course set up on Cabot Field. Two winners will be declared for each grade. The Trot is optional for students. CASP Parents are encouraged to enter the Parent Turkey Trot and/or cheer in the stands. The Turkey Trot begins at approx—3:15 p.m. on Cabot Field. Students who do not regularly attend CASP on Mondays may participate in our race if an adult accompanies them.
FAMILY FEST
The Annual Family Fest and Award Ceremony follows the Turkey Trot inside Cabot School for CASP students and their families. After the ceremony, various Thanksgiving-themed activities, including arts & crafts and gym games, are offered in the lunchroom, mural lobby, and gym. Students who do not regularly attend CASP on Mondays may participate in Family Fest if an adult accompanies them.
THE TURKEY TROT &
FAMILY FEST ARE FREE
FOR ALL CASP FAMILIES!
ANNUAL DONATIONS TO FAMILIES IN NEED
CASP will soon accept donations to support Cabot families experiencing hardship this holiday season. The money donated will be used to purchase gift cards for food before the Thanksgiving holiday. This effort is being made in collaboration with Cabot School Social Worker Kerri Fahey. Your generosity is greatly appreciated! Look for an upcoming Smore Newsletter from our Director, Carly, regarding donation dates. Donations may be given in person at the "sign out" table in the mural lobby. Cash, check, and Venmo will be accepted. Make checks payable to Cabot After School, Inc.
