Principal Newsletter 1/20/22

Thursday, January 20, 2022

  • There is no school tomorrow, Friday, January 21st.  This is Turn Around Day.  Staff have to report, but not students.

  • Our teachers encourage students to wear their coats/outdoor gear before exiting the building for both recess and the end of the day.  Some students refuse to wear their coat, but we do remind them to do so.

  • There’s a vax bus at TFHS on Monday, January 24th.  Please visit our district website for more information.

  • There’s a School Council meeting on Tuesday, January 25 from 4:00-5:00 pm in the Sheffield conference room.  These are open meetings and anyone can attend.

  • Wednesday, January 26th is a half day with a noon dismissal.  Our spirit day will be ‘blue and white’ day!  Students and staff are encouraged to wear clothing or knit hats that have/are blue, white or both.  This is not a baseball cap day.  As with all spirit days, you may choose to participate or not.

  • Ms. Jessika Nadeau will be out for the rest of the year as she will soon welcome a new baby to her family.  Her long-term replacement will be Ms. Ramona LaTronica.  Ms. L will be starting on Monday, January 24th.

  • This time of year is tricky on the playground.  Snow gear is required to play in the snow, and remaining students are on the blacktop.  The adults are about keeping students safe and we discourage students from accessing icy spots on the blacktop so they don’t fall.  Students may build with snow; forts, snowman, etc. but we do not allow them to throw snow/ice.

With Sheffield Pride,
