What a spooktacular night! Our annual Trunk or Treat was a massive hit! A huge thank you to all of our amazing families, volunteers, and staff who decorated trunks, handed out goodies, and brought so much energy to our school community. From spooky skeletons to The Sandlot, your creativity blew us away! The kids (and adults!) looked absolutely incredible in their costumes.
We want to see your favorite memories! Share your best photos from the night in the comments below!

DID YOU HEAR THAT CRUNCH?!
Our students absolutely understood the assignment! Our elementary school joined kids all across the region to celebrate the Crunch Heard 'Round the Commonwealth.
Everyone took a bite out of a crisp, delicious, locally grown apple! This loud and fun event celebrates National Farm to School Month, highlights healthy eating habits, and shows love to our local farmers who grow such amazing food.

A huge thank you to our incredible School Nutrition team for coordinating the fresh apples for all of our students!
