PWS Families,

Halloween week is always a special one here at Peter Woodbury School. One of our favorite times during Halloween day is watching the long line of creative, fun costumes re-enter the building. Thank you to all the families who made time in their day to come celebrate in the classrooms and cheer our students on in the parade. 

This morning Mrs. O'Rourke's second grade class welcomed Bedford High School's World Religions class. These two classes have been meeting in person and virtually to create a digital book. It was hard to tell if our second graders or the high schoolers were more excited. Links to their books will be shared on the Peter Woodbury Facebook page within the next week. We can't wait to see the finished products!

Some fourth grade families took a UNICEF Halloween donation box. Please return the box to school this coming week. Thank you for your generosity. 

Remember there is no school this Tuesday, Tuesday 6th due to voting. Please enjoy the day and hopefully the weather will allow you to enjoy the outdoors.

Have a Great Weekend,

Cheryl Daley (Principal)
Dan Mitchell (Assistant Principal)
