Today we hosted our annual Community Readers Day!

This longstanding event is a wonderful opportunity for community members to connect with the children of Station Avenue Elementary School and share the gift of reading. Each classroom had a guest reader to start the day. We had visitors from Yarmouth libraries, Yarmouth Police and Fire, Yarmouth Rotary Club, current and retired DYRSD teachers and staff, and our own SAE PTO. A huge thanks to all who participated and took the opportunity to collaborate with our school in promoting the importance of literacy.

Our PBIS Team is leading a whole school initiave. If students are caught representing our school values of being safe, responsible, respectful, or caring they can earn a Dolphin Deed. We have over 100 Deeds already! Keep up the great work everyone!

On Monday, March 23rd, the DY MLPAC is hosting a Community Resource Fair at the DY High School Library. This is a great opportunity to connect with local resources, other DY families, and community partners. The event begins at 6:00 PM and childcare and refreshments will be provided. All are welcome!

For every Community Reusable Bag purchased during the month of March at Stop & Shop in South Yarmouth (55 Long Pond Drive), SAE PTO will get $1. Stop by and pick one up before the end of the month!

Did you know that SAE is a Box Tops for Education school?

Our PTO has a goal to raise $500 in Box Tops this year and would love your help!

The homes will be a mixture of ranch and Cape styles.

 

The maximum household income for the houses is 60% of the area median income for Pocasset (Bourne), one home in Brewster, and two homes in Falmouth, and 80% for one home in Brewster and two homes in Falmouth. For a four-person household, the current maximum income at 60% is $80,100; at 80%, it is $106,800. These income guidelines are adjusted annually.

 

The applicant household must be willing to commit 250-500 hours of sweat equity to build the home and have a housing need. The monthly housing payment (mortgage, taxes, insurance, homeowners association) for these homes is estimated to be around $1,562 - $2,071, depending on the cost of taxes, insurance, changing interest rates, and other terms.

The Young Mariner Program is a full-day, Monday–Friday on-the-water summer camp for students entering grades 4 - 7. Campers explore Cape Cod’s marine environment through hands-on, STEM-based activities both on the water and in our museum classroom. Activities include fishing, lobstering, beachcombing, marine science experiments, and learning about local ecosystems and maritime careers.

The program is designed to increase access to maritime education for Cape Cod youth, and we are proud to offer full and partial scholarships to families who may need financial assistance. The goal is to ensure that cost is not a barrier to participating in this experience.

Check out the calendar above for loads of fun activities for kids of all ages.
