September 2012, A New School Year Begins

Welcome back to school Taylor Elementary Families and Friends. I am always excited to start a new year with both the older students I know and the newest of students, the kindergartner. The year has gotten off to a good start with beautiful weather, so we can be outside and very few sightings of our local geese.

This year we will continue with Nutrition Education in grades 1-4. I will be starting up Growing Up Healthy and Strong, 5-2-1 in early October and hope to continue through out the school year with worksheets twice a month. Students will be given a new chain and can collect tokens for their chain for every worksheet they complete. More information will be coming home soon.

This year I will be offering a variety of before and after school programs for students to participate in. The first program is a before school Zumba class on Thursday mornings for the month of October. The PTO has offered to sponsor this program so there is no cost to student. If all goes well there will future Zumba classes at a small cost.  A great big thanks to the PTO and the Foxboro YMCA for getting us an instructor.
