Since the holiday break, there has been an increase in electronic devices being brought to school, particularly Smart Watches. Students have been seen using them in and out of the classroom, and they can be a major distraction to learning. Unfortunately, some are being used inappropriately, particularly our older students creating group chats outside of school. As per our handbook, all devices, including phones and watches, should be powered off and kept in backpacks during the school day. On behalf of staff members at Governor Winslow School, we are in need of parent/guardian support. Please review our school's expectations and monitor your children's devices. We appreciate the continued support of our families!

I hope you have a wonderful weekend!
