Mayo News

The second quarter started last Monday (11/6) and conferences were completed. Report Cards will be available in Power School starting tomorrow (11/13). Please see below for a great way to think about your child's grades.

Monday is also World Kindness Day - which is perfect since our Choose To Be Nice word of the month is Kindness! We have already had some nice experiences with kindness as students in grades 4 and 5 came together to create kindness/friendship bracelets this past Thursday. We also witnessed some sweet ways of honoring veterans throughout the building.

I have received a few questions on the Winter Concert dates. I understand it may seem backwards to have a snow date before the actual concert date, but I have always had it this way. The thought is to have the concert on the last day before winter break. We will keep an eye on the forecast and if a storm is predicted on the concert date (12/21), we will move it to the "snow date" of 12/20. We will be having 2 shows. 10:00 AM for last names A-M and 2:00 PM for last names N-Z!

LOTS going on in November/December! See list below!

Kindly,

Carolan Kasper

Principal

The season of giving is upon us, and we will continue our Mayo tradition of providing gift cards for children in need during this holiday season. We will once again partner with Why Me & Sherry's House in Worcester, which is dedicated to providing love and support to children experiencing childhood cancer. We are asking Mayo families to choose a gift card from this link, if you are able to do so. Gift cards can be any denomination and can be sent to school with your child, or brought to Mrs. Trefry in the main office by Friday, December 1st.
