All you need to know about DeMello!
Hello DeMello Families!
Happy 2024! I hope this email finds you enjoying the first days of the new year and looking forward to all that is to come!
It was wonderful welcoming students back after the holiday break. Everyone seemed rested and ready to get back to learning. While January can seem a bit blah after all of the holiday excitement of December, we have some fun events planned for this month including a visit from the Mad Scientist, an ST Math 80's Day (see below) and a special author's visit! Lots to look forward to at DeMello School!
Over break, our cafeteria was transformed into a forest adventure featuring our mascot, Joey the Wolf, and his woodland friends. We hope your child came home excited about our new dining space. We did receive many compliments on it from students as they arrived on Wednesday. We look forward to showing it off to our families in the near future!
Again, we wish all of our DeMello families a wonderful start to 2024.
Have a great weekend!
Mrs. Correia
We Are Going Back to the 80's For JIJI!
It is time to celebrate all of the hard work our students have been doing in ST Math! To recognize our progress towards reaching our goal of 80% by June, we are inviting all DeMello students to wear their best 80's attire to school on Tuesday. All students who come in showing their 80's look will be entered into a raffle to win JiJi swag! Hoping to send pictures of the event out to in next week's Backpack!
