2nd Grade CE: Southwick Zoo
12/11/2024 6:48 pm
Last week, our Pawsome second graders enjoyed a visit from The Southwick Zoomobile program! Students learned all about animal adaptations and asked some stellar questions. Favorites included Mr. Pickles the porcupine, a macaw, a tortoise and ferrets! Each student should have come home with a ticket for free entry to the Southwick Zoo in their red folders!
Thank you to our wonderful Loring community for supporting the PTO and making these programs possible. Also, thank you to our second grade creative enrichment coordinator, Ashley Maguire, who worked with teachers to bring this program to Loring!

ACE Awards (Appreciation of Champions in Education Awards) are a way to thank an educator while supporting grants that bring Sudbury educators' innovative ideas to life!
When you give an ACE Award, your star educator will receive a certificate of honor and will be recognized at your school and on SERF's website. Your donation will support all Sudbury educators (K-12) seeking funds for innovative and enriching projects.
Donations for ACE Awards are tax deductible and accepted all year. Those received by today - Thursday, Dec 12th - will honor your Champion in Education before the holiday break.

PTO: Join a Committee!
12/11/2024 6:32 pm
The PTO relies on volunteers to run successfully. Many roles can be done primarily from home and all can be done on your own time. Thanks to everyone who has reached out and stepped up to keep our events running!
Immediate Needs:
* Fun Run Coordinator - we have an experienced team but need a volunteer to oversee event & coordinate with vendor (Boosterthon)
* Loring Eats Coordinator - coordinate with local restaurants to schedule "eat around town" nights for the Loring community and raise funds for PTO.
Upcoming Needs (Onboard now to shadow current volunteers):
* Camp Fair Coordinator - coordinate the PTO's 2nd largest fundraiser (and the only one that requires no funds from our parent/family community). Has support of Camp Fair team to break up responsibility; Coordinator role can be split between 2 people.
* Leopardfest Committee (multiple openings) - plan and execute our September back to school celebration. Our current team is aging out of Loring and we need new members to keep this event going.
Please email cochairs@loringpto.org for more info!
