Dear Center School Families,
A very special thanks to all the parents who volunteered to chaperone on our Quassy trip this week. The students were so excited to spend the day with their friends and have new experiences.
We had a special visit today from Litchfield Volunteer Ambulance. Thank you to John Pudlinski and the EMT’s for teaching us about their job and how we can keep ourselves safe. Thank you also to Christopher Wilcox, Litchfield Fire Marshall, for helping us understand fire safety. Students enjoyed seeing the special characters from the AOK Club at LHS. As a part of their visit, John presented LCS, LIS and LHS with a new defibrillator he was able to purchase through a grant from Seherr-Thoss.
As we move into June, the special events continue. Please be sure to read the emails from your child’s teacher so that you are aware of class activities and whole school events.
Field Day is June 2. Thank you for returning the permission slips. Please be sure to apply sunscreen and bug spray (if desired) prior to sending your child to school. We will be having popsicles upon returning to the building. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Beth DeFiore.
Thank you for sharing your child(ren) with us and partnering with us in your child’s education!
Best,
Lisa

Looking for fun activities for your child to engage in this summer?
LPS and RSD6 are excited to sponsor the Summer Step Enrichment program at James Morris School. This program is open to all currently enrolled students in grades K-5 across both districts, at no cost to families! Summer Step offers students an opportunity to participate in a variety of academic activities in ELA and Math subject areas, led by certified
Teachers. We will also be working with local community agencies to provide fun, on-site presentations and/or activities!
Please see the Virtual Backpack for more information. Registration form
Food Services If you would like for your child to receive breakfast at school, please sign up using this form. The food service program needs to track the breakfasts provided, so you must order by 7:45am daily. You can also order for the full week ahead of time.
