Business Sponsor Welcome: New England Therapy Center

10/8/2026 2:56 am

Please extend a PAWSOME welcome to our returning Gold Sponsor, New England Therapy Center! We're so grateful to have their support!

Are you a Loring family who owns a business (any kind, big or small)? Would you like some great exposure WHILE supporting our school?  Reach out to Karen Lynch.

Volunteers Needed: Lunch/Recess

10/8/2026 2:55 am

Every Friday, we will be looking for 3 volunteers per grade to help cover recess and lunch. This allows our classroom teachers to have consistent planning time each week. It's an easy volunteering opportunity if your schedule has flexibility during the day, and it's also a fun chance to see your kids and their friends during the school day!

If you are interested in volunteering, sign up at this link to help your child's grade! Please be mindful of how many shifts you sign up for at one time - we'd like to afford as many caregivers as possible the opportunity to help.

Please make sure you have an active CORI form on file with SPS by checking in with Paula Saliga in the front office. 

Before you volunteer, you will need to sign a confidentiality agreement. These forms are available in the front office and can be completed when you check in for your first volunteer shift.

Also, please review the playground expectations in advance. There will be dedicated staff members present at both recess and lunch. If you have any questions during recess, please ask Mr. Evangelos or Ms. Welch. Questions during lunch can be directed to Ms. McCune.

Please check in at the front office 5 minutes prior to your start time to sign in, obtain a badge and proceed to the playground.

Can't make your shift? PLEASE try to find a replacement first. If unable, please email the office.
