Dear PWS Families,
Happy Friday! This Wednesday night we had the opportunity to watch Mrs. Stallone’s class perform The Mitten. The class did such a nice job and it was nice to see the families come back on a cold January night. Today was our Patriots Rally Day and Wednesday we celebrated National Penguin Day.

Parent Morning Drop Off
During morning drop off this morning we were impressed by how the students knew how to get out of the car with all their stuff (backpacks and snow gear). We noticed the independence of the students helped the traffic move along faster. Thanks for all your help with this.

Deliberative Session Feb. 2 at 7:00 p.m. BHS Theater
All voters in Bedford are urged to come to the Bedford School District Deliberative Session on Tuesday, February 2 at 7:00 p.m. at the Bedford High School Theater. This is when the community either affirms or revises the School Board’s proposed budget for 2016-17 (The budget is presented in the School District Warrant.). The proposed budget is $68.3M, a 3.9% increase over this year. The increase is primarily because of personnel, health insurance benefits, and significant building maintenance.
