Supply Boxes:

Hey parents! We are happy to announce our partnership with 1st Day School Supplies. If there were ever a year to order your school supplies early, this is it! No longer is purchasing a back-to-school supply kit a luxury, it is a necessity. With all the supply chain issues it is a great way to order back-to-school supplies for next year. 1st Day School Supplies is so convenient, easy and hassle free! Plus, they have guaranteed our school the impossible to find and highest quality brands like Ticonderoga, Crayola, Elmers, Fiskars, Purell and Clorox.

Order today before it’s too late! https://1stdayschoolsupplies.com/kits.php?sid=50637 

*Please note: The fourth grade supply box list is just a general kit. The fourth grade classrooms are self contained. Each teacher will send out their own school supply list at the start of the new school year however, these items in the fourth grade supply kit are on all of the lists that the teachers will be sending out. By purchasing the kit you will only have a few remaining items you may need to grab at the start of the school year. 

 

School nurse information: 

Our interim school nurse is Annemarie Plante.  Annemarie will be communicating directly with parents when a student is sick or visits the nurse.  However Nurse Becky will continue to oversee Ms. Plante and the nurse’s office at Whitin.  Feel free to contact Nurse Becky if you have any questions or concerns: rpadula@uxbridge.k12.ma.us
