A Spirit Assembly to End March Madness

We had a rousing spirit assembly to end March Madness. But, before the rousing started, I spoke with the students about working hard and taking MCAS seriously (as they usually do). I also explained some of the changes to the Positive Behavior parts of the Code of Conduct.


The Student Council did a fantastic job cheering on the whole school.

March Madness - Crazy Hair Day

Officially crazy hair day, some students and staff wore crazy hats to make for Tuesday. Here are just a tiny representation of the hair stylings of Spofford Pond School.

St. Patrick's March Madness

St. Patrick's Day/March Madness was a great way to follow Mother Nature's recent March Madness. These photos are a small sampling of the amazing amount of green found at Spofford Pond School yesterday.

March Madness Resumes

Really, we were planning on calling it March Madness before the weather made that somewhat redundant.

Anyway, here is the remaining March Madness Schedule:

• Wednesday is St. Patrick's Day; be as green as you can be!
  
• Thursday is Crazy Hair Day; dye it, twist it, spike it...be creative!
• Friday we will show our School Spirit by wearing blue and white (our school colors). It would be great if we can get everyone to participate!

Looking forward to seeing you all in green on Wednesday.

Coins for Cures

We raised $603.36 in our first week of our student council sponsored Coins for Cures fund raiser!

Way to go Spofford Pond School. Your generosity is fantastic.

Hearts for Haiti

One of the many things that I love about Spofford Pond School is the strong spirit of generosity. In a very short time, our community raised over $2000 to help the people of Haiti begin to rebuild their lives. Our students are proud to decorate a heart after making their donations. All of the hearts are on display in the cafeteria as a reminder to all that the work is not done and that helping those in need is a core value of all good people.

With the spirit of giving, we also need to create a spirit of doing. The student council and the sixth grade are often considering other hands-on community service projects. Hopefully, this spring, we will see the fruits of those considerations. To help the process along, I will begin having a regular meeting with the Student Council Officers. I want to hear from them directly.

If you have any hands-on community service ideas for the students, please email me so that I can share.

Thank you.
