Does your child know a little bit about everything? Do they want to? We are excited to offer the Trivia Club again this year at Curtis. The club will meet on Mondays from 3:15-4:15 pm and this opportunity is open to students in grades 6-8. Our first meeting will be held on Monday, December 11th.
We will host weekly games with questions on pop culture, geography, science, math, history, and more. Interested students should send Mr. Neagle a message in Schoology if they have any questions or would like to sign up. We will play in teams, but give it a try:
- Which award winning recording artist won a national poetry contest at age 10?
- What distinct cape stretches from Provincetown to Woods Hole in Massachusetts?
- In which body system do tapeworms make their home?
- The First Amendment begins a list of ten amendments known as what?
- According to Newton, how long would a feather remain motionless on a box if it were not acted on by outside forces?
- In what novel is a boy named Jonas selected to be the person to store all the past memories of the time before Sameness?
- The sum of odd integers between 1 and 99 (inclusive) is 2500. What is the sum of the even integers between 2 and 100 (inclusive)?
Two weeks ago, members of the Curtis Angels and many of their siblings and parents raked the yard of a senior resident in Sudbury. This is the 9th year that the Curtis Angels have participated in this program, which is coordinated by the Sudbury Senior Center. Below is a photo of some of the 50 rakers who participated. Thank you to everyone who helped out.
- If your child will be absent or tardy from school, please call 978-443-1071, press 1, and leave a message on the absence line or email ecms_office@sudbury.k12.ma.us. Please state your child’s name, the date(s) of their absence/ tardiness and the reason. If there is a planned absence, you are welcome to call ahead of time -- you do not need to wait until that day.
- If you will be taking your child out of school for an appointment or picking them up early, please write a note and have your child drop it off in the front office. You must come into the office to sign out your child; if they return to school that day, they may come back on their own and stop by the office.
- We do not need to know about a change in dismissal plans at 3:10 dismissal time (or 12:45 on an Early Release day).
- Students may only ride the bus to which they are assigned.
- We will interrupt class to have students pick up eyeglasses or Chromebooks dropped off in the office. All other items will be placed on the table outside the office. If your child calls and asks you to bring something to school, please tell them they must come to the office to retrieve.
- Students' cellphones are expected to be turned off during the school day, so they will not see a text you send them.
