Dear Families,
As the month of March ends and April begins, there are many exciting events and meetings planned! On Tuesday, March 29th, there will be a PTO meeting at Walnut Square at 5pm. We hope you will be able to join us!
On Thursday, March 31st, families from Pentucket Lake and Walnut Square can participate in a sunset nature walk and guided tour with a Conservation Commissioner around Lake Pentucket. We will meet in the front of Pentucket Lake School, and the nature walk will begin at 6:15 pm. All families will receive resources and ideas to explore nature. This event is rain or shine, and proper dress is highly recommended! We hope you will attend this fun outdoor event!

As the weather gets warmer, absences spike in the weeks before and after the April spring break as families squeeze in a few more days off. We know that just a few missed days here and there, even if they’re excused absences, can add up to too much lost instructional time. This is as true in kindergarten as it is in high school: too many absences can affect a student’s chances for academic success and for graduation.
Right up until break starts and on the first day back, our teachers will be teaching, and our students will be learning. You can help us convey that message. This spring season, give your children the gift of reaching for their hopes and dreams and the habit of school attendance.
- If your family or your child need support, please call us at (978) 374-3471 for help.
- As long as your child is healthy, please encourage showing up to class when school is in session. Every day of school is an important opportunity for students to learn as well as connect to peers and their teachers.
