Lots of Fun at Martin Today!
Dear Families,
On Thursday, we were all excited to welcome back a Family Book Fair Night at Martin School! We haven't had one since before the pandemic! Thank you for joining us to purchase books, mingle, and to enjoy some delicious treats at our bake sale! It was a great night!
Next week, we start the week with the release of report cards (on Monday) and end our week with conferences (on Thursday and Friday). Please remember that our conference days are half days. Dismissal begins at noon on Thursday (3/23) and Friday (3/24).
Also, next week begins our clothing drive! Please read below for more information about what is being collected.
Lastly, if you haven't purchased a Red Sox raffle ticket, yet, there is still time! Entries at $1 each (unlimited entries!), and the seats are INCREDIBLE. Thank you, Peak Pediatrics for donating these AMAZING seats! To see the view from your winning tickets, click on this link: https://forms.gle/JRAnyyKsSokDxAiEA
