Reflex Math

Wow! We are seeing incredibly impressive growth in our math fluency numbers since bringing ExploreLearning Reflex Math into our grade 2 + 3 classrooms.

Adaptive and individualized, Reflex is the most effective system for mastering basic math facts in addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division for grades 2+. This program was purchased with the support of our PTO to help us respond to some numeracy growth needs indicated by our MCAS and MAP data. We look forward to continuing to see our student's expertise increase throughout the year!

Winter Clothing Reminder & Donation Request

Please clearly label your children's winter clothing with their name, to help avoid losing or missing items!

Additionally, if your family has any extra kid's gloves, hats, scarves, or mittens to donate to our SAE clothing closet, please drop them off with us! We have a lot of children in need of warm clothing for these cold winter days. Thank you so much!

Hello December

A Note from the SAE Nurse's Office

Hello SAE Families,

The cold weather has finally arrived. Please dress your child for the weather. Jackets, hats, mittens and snow pants and boots (when we get some snow!) are a necessity for recess. Students will continue to go outdoors for recess, weather and temperature permitting. Please dress your student in layers to keep them warm. Once again, I will remind parents to please pack an extra set of clothing in your child’s backpack. My supply of clothing is very limited. It is always good to be prepared for life’s little emergencies.

As we are now into December, just a reminder to all Kindergarten students who are missing immunizations that this needs to be completed, and documentation needs to be faxed to the school at 508-760-5601.

I hope all of our families are staying safe and healthy during this holiday season. If you have any questions, please feel free to call me at 508-760-5600 ext.1 or you can email me at dipretes@dy-regional.k12.ma.us

Be well ~

A Note from the SAE Library

Dear SAE families,
Hope you are enjoying reading new books from our school library. Please help remind your child to keep their library books in their backpack everyday. You can identify our school books by the barcode sticker on the back cover. This will help us to have more books for all students to read throughout the year. Happy reading!

Warmly, Ms. T
