Family Newsletter Week of 3/28/2024

Dear Brackett Families,

Congratulations to our Fourth Graders who completed their ELA MCAS tests this week! Well done! Make up sessions will happen on Monday for students who missed a day of testing.


It was such a pleasure to see some of you at the PTO meeting last week. The information shared about supporting our children with their emotions was fabulous. Here is a suggested resource list if you were not able to attend.


INFORMATION ABOUT TOMORROW FRIDAY, MARCH 29:

  • TOMORROW Brackett will have school from 8am-1pm
  • After-School: BASP, Spanish Immersion, Boys and Girls Club, and Kids Care afterschool programs are closed. If your child regularly attends these programs on Friday, you will need to pick them up at 1pm. Fidelity House is open and will pick up at 1pm.
