It was a perfect day for a morning of community service on the trails at Pelham Lake Park and afternoon pond exploration with our guest teacher Dorri from Mass Audubon! We are very fortunate to have such a wonderful landscape surrounding our school.

Five 3rd and 4th grade students use nets to explore a pond in the foreground, with a cloudy sky and mountainsides in the distant background.
Tadpoles and salamanders are removed from a ponding net, with a basin below already full of other creatures including newts, dragonfly larvae, and water boatmen.
A view of the woods along the Beach Trail, the trail that the 3rd and 4th grade class is helping to maintain as part of the Park's "Adopt-A-Trail" program. The sky is blue with the sun shining through tall, leafy green trees.
After School Chess Club is off to a great start! Participants have been analyzing ways to escape check and playing practice games.

Importance calendar update:
We are aware of some inconsistencies on the calendar for November. While it does show that 11/7 and 11/21 are half day, those are not listed in the text to the right and 11/14 was listed by accident. We DO HAVE 12:30 dismissal times on 11/21 as it is the third Friday of the month and we DO NOT HAVE a 12:30 dismissal on 11/14.
All other dates for November are correct.
