Dear Peaslee Students, Families and Caregivers,
Our Classroom Buddy Program is officially underway, offering yet another way we strengthen our sense of community at Peaslee School. In this program, upper-wing classes partner with lower-wing classes to work together on a wide range of projects. These partnerships offer many benefits, including increased student confidence, improved academic performance, and more positive peer interactions.
For younger students, the program provides valuable opportunities to practice collaboration and apply social skills in authentic, supportive settings. Older students gain the chance to reflect on their own participation, think critically about how their actions influence others, and develop thoughtful problem-solving and leadership skills. Above all, the program creates a fun, meaningful way for students to connect with one another.
Our upper wing students attended a very successful EdCamp today. This personalized and authentic learning experience provided students in grades 3-5 the opportunity to select from a wide variety of outstanding and highly engaging learning opportunities. The presentations offered by teachers, parents, and community members made the event a huge success. Thank you to all of the presenters, as well as to Mrs. Daunais and Mrs. Griffin for organizing and leading the event. I will post the photos during next week's Panda Post!
The feedback from students and staff was very positive. Please let us know if you have any questions or feedback about the event.
Enjoy the long weekend! As always, please reach out if you have any questions.
Dr. Mary Coakley, Principal
