Dear Thacher Families:
It was so great to get students back in the building. We're off to a great start and were even fortunate enough to have a few Attleboro Police Officers join a few of our grades for lunch. They went through the lunch line, got their tray and joined different tables to chat and enjoy their food.
We're looking forward to our Kindergarteners joining us next week. Families will join us for Kindergarten Orientation on Tuesday (if you didn't receive an email about this, please contact the school to make sure we have your correct email address.)
K Orientation Schedule:
- Student Last Name A-L: 9:00 - 10:00
- Student Last Name M-Z: 11:00 - 12:00
Lastly, we want to send a HUGE THANK YOU to Waters Church for dropping off a large donation of school supplies. It's a humbling reminder of how amazing our community is.
Enjoy your long weekend, as we do not have school tomorrow, 9/1, or on Monday, 9/4
Sincerely,
Frank W. Rich
Principal
