For those of you who came to the Welcome Back Picnic and BRAIN SHOW- thank you! Loring set a record for the most families to attend a BRAIN SHOW family fun night! We hope you had as much fun as we did! A special thanks to the following people who volunteered their time to help make the evening run smoothly: Robin Cavanaugh, Debbie Howell, Millie Kateman, Sherri Kelleher, Sue Ohler, Linda Roth and Frank DeTraglia.

Many thanks to the dedicated folks who have worked hard for the PTO over the summer. Leslie and Chris Hamilton, Michelle Lombardi and Ellen Pumphret organized all 600+ red folders that every child uses daily throughout the year. Elisha Rotar organized the Welcome Back Luncheon for the teachers and staff. This luncheon is a great way to show the teachers and staff how much we as parents appreciate all they do (and will do this year) for our children. And thanks to Rick Morris and Lisa Armour for all their hard work on the new Loring PTO website. A big thank you to Gloria Avilia and Lisa Armour for helping to unpack and distribute all of the School Kits.
