Good afternoon- I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend.  It was great to see so many of you at Ashland Day.  I hope all of the groups had fun and raised lots of funds!   We've got one more disjointed week coming. Please be conscious of student time in relation to religious traditions when assigning homework this week.   I will be out of the building quite a bit this week but I am always available for phone and email. Monday I will be at the MIAA for the afternoon, Tuesday I will be at the MSAA for the morning, and Friday I will be at Medfield High School for the morning.  You can always leave anything needing a signature in the red folder behind Linda's seat.   As you start filling out PD, field trip, and other forms please remember this should all be done online.  Claudia Bialzik shared the folder of Curriculum Forms on September 7.  Be sure to save the folder to your drive and make a copy of the form before using it.   ...

Good afternoon- I hope everyone had a wonderful long weekend.   We have our first faculty meeting this week on Thursday.  The agenda is attached.   The AEFI will be here, along with representatives from the corporate sponsors who helped fund the Ashland Innovation Center, to do a ribbon cutting ceremony.  We will start in the AIC and then move to the library for the remainder of our meeting after the ceremony.

Good morning- I hope you are all enjoying this beautiful Labor Day weekend.  Thank you for a wonderful first week of the 2018-2019 school year.  I loved seeing the relationships being built with students in many classes around the building.  If you didn't find time the first two days to get to know your students, look for ways each day to spend even 5 minutes getting to know them.. It will pay off. This Friday is the All-School PBIS Activity & Convocation Day.  Class lists and Scavenger Hunt directions will be shared soon.  Please be an active participant in the event, even though Peer Leaders will be leading.  This is a time to get to know students across all grade levels and to encourage relationship building among students. The schedule is found here .
