Thank you to those of you who were able to attend the school picnic last Friday.\u00a0 I know that many families made the effort to be here, and we hope a good time was had by all.\u00a0 We look forward to many more exciting social events throughout the school year.\u00a0 It is always good to celebrate the wonderful community of Putnam Valley!<\/p>\n
As some classes begin going on field trips soon, it is important to remind parents that chaperones may not<\/u> bring younger siblings on the school trips.\u00a0 We need our chaperones to pay very careful attention to our students, and this, of course, is a special time for you and your child and his\/her classmates.\u00a0 Thank you for understanding this important policy, which focuses on safety, a top priority.<\/p>\n
