Please follow the guidelines below for a safe and fun day for all:

No slippers
No footie pajamas

SNOW DAYS/DELAYS

Winter weather is upon us! You can find information related to snow days and school delays in the Inclement Weather Procedures section of the SPS website. The most important thing to note is that our system will send a message to the phone number in Follett Aspen, so be certain your phone numbers are accurate in our Follett/Aspen Student Information System. Another important thing to know is that there is no Sudbury Extended Day in the morning if there is a school delay and none at all if school is canceled. Also, any snow days will be “real” snow days, not “remote learning days.”

Nixon School Cares

For the past 18 years, Nixon School has contributed and supported the Toys for Tots mission. We have collected well over three thousand toys throughout those 18 years. We would like to continue our tradition of community service this year.

How to support: Please leave an unused, unopened, and unwrapped toy in one of the two boxes located at Nixon School. One box is at the Front Office and one is in the Cafeteria. Check through closets and find toys or crafts your children have never opened or used.

Deadline: The boxes will be out until December 8th, when we will count and announce how many toys our generous staff and students donate.

We at Toys For Tots appreciate all of the generosity

and good will from all of you.

Have a happy and healthy Winter season.
