Dear Whitin Families,
The following is the update for the week of October 14, 2019.
This week we are hosting our annual Halloween dance at Whitin Intermediate School.
Friday, October 18th:
Grades 4-5 from 4:00-6:00
Grades 6-7 from 7:00-9:00
Costumes are certainly welcome but are not required. Cost is $5.00. Snacks and candy will be available for purchase. Parents, this is a drop off event.
PTO update:
The Whitin PTO is looking for company sponsors. Please email whitinpto@uxbridge.k12.us.com if interested. The PTO is a non-profit organization and your sponsorship is 100% tax deductible.
Square One Art
Once again we will be participating in Square One Art this year. Students will be completing this in their art classes. Students in 6th and 7th grade who do not have art this trimester will be taking home the materials and can complete the project independently.
