Martin School Family Update

Dear Families,

Thank you all for coming to another wonderful MSA Skate Night! The music was great! The children seemed to really be enjoying themselves, and as always, it's always great to see all of you! Congratulations to our costume contest winners! What a fun night it was at United Skates of America!

Also, please don't forget that next Friday (11/4) students may retake their school photo if you would like to give the photo a second try or if your child was absent the day we took pictures. These photos will be used in the school yearbook and may also be purchased.

Please read below for other school news and a link to North Gear, and if you haven't yet, follow us on Twitter! @JWMartinSchool

Sincerely,

Dr. Jennifer Evans

MCAS reports were sent home today. For each test your child took in spring 2022, the report shows your child’s score (between 440 and 560) and an associated achievement level. Pages 2-4 of the report will include your child’s scores on each test and provide a description of each achievement level.

School picture retakes are scheduled for Friday, November 4.

Dear Martin Families,

The 2022 Winter Raffle Event is just around the corner, starting during conferences on Thursday, November 17th!!. The Winter Raffle event is a popular fundraising event that we have each year. Students, staff, and families can try their luck at winning the items on display. There will be themed gift baskets from classroom donations along with over 50 items donated by generous local businesses on tables in the center hall. You could win a gift card to use towards dinner, a fun family outing, or maybe even a birthday party for your child!

Thanks to a grant provided by a grant from the North Attleborough Cultural Council, a local agency which is supported by the Mass Cultural Council, a state agency, and our our MSA Grant Committee, Martin's Fourth Grade Students will be enjoying an interactive enrichment program. The program teaches about Perseus and Medusa through a highly entertaining and interactive puppet show. We're all looking forward to this incredible performance.

Thank you for writing notes and emails to let us know when your children might be absent from school. If you send an email to your child's teacher, please also send the email to this email address: attendancemartin@naschools.net

Thank you so much!

Massachusetts students will be able to enjoy FREE breakfast and lunch for the school year! Click here to register for a meal account. NAPS menus are available through this link.
