Kindergarten Celebrates 100 Days of Learning with a Parade!

Marguerite E. Peaslee Elementary School
A Vibrant Student Centered Learning Community

Dear Peaslee Families and Caregivers,

A Week to Remember
What a week it’s been, what a sight, what cheer,
So much joy and laughter echoing here.
From the very first step of the 100th Day Parade,
To memories and smiles that will never quite fade.
The violins sang with courage and grace,
Music filling every hallway and space.
Tiny hands played, hearts beating fast,
Moments like these are built to last.
Projects were tackled, side by side,
Working together with friends and pride.
Even when the wind cut icy and strong,
We ran, we laughed, we played all recess long!
Sleds flew and boots sank deep,
But fun with friends made the cold a sweet treat.
Kindness bloomed in the simplest ways,
Valentine cards, heartfelt praise.
Letters full of thanks, notes written true,
Small acts of love in all they do.
A breakfast surprise, prepared with care,
By thoughtful students eager to share.
Teachers smiled, feeling seen,
Reminded of all that teaching means.
Artists of the Month shined bold and bright,
Creativity glowing with pure delight.
One truth stood steady at the center of it all:
It’s the people...the students, families, staff,
Who make this place so full of magic and laughs.
So thank you all, every heart, every part,
For sharing your kindness, creativity, and heart.
Wishing joy and rest for everyone, in every way.
Happy School Break beginning today!

Warmly,
Dr. Mary Coakley, Principal 
(with a little help from my Chat Bot Pippi the Panda)
