Get ready for a fall family favorite!  The annual Pumpkin Walk is THIS WEEKEND, and tickets are available now for anyone in the community to purchase, not just Loring families! Take a stroll along one of the Sudbury Valley Trustees’ local trails, admire the beautifully decorated pumpkins along the way, and enjoy some fun surprises! A stroller-friendly, wheelchair-accessible path is available, making it easier for everyone to join in the fun.

Food Pantry Next Week

10/22/2026 2:57 am

Mark your calendars for Friday, October 30th!

For those new to the Loring community, the Sudbury Public Schools host a food drive one Friday a month to benefit the Sudbury Food Pantry. Our generous donations help families in need in our very own community and beyond.

Ways YOU Can Get Involved

1. Send in non-perishables. This month's most needed items are: pasta, mac and cheese, cereal, tomato sauce, boxed rice, taco kits, boxed potatoes, condiments, and cake/brownie mixes. Glass and expired non-perishable items will not be accepted. Donations can be sent with your child, dropped in the bin outside of the school on Friday morning or in the lobby during the week leading up to Food Pantry Friday.

2. Volunteer. Join us each month to help students to sort and box donations. Volunteer shifts start around 8am and end between 9-9:30am. Sign up here!

3. Venmo us and we will shop for you. If you don't have time to get to the store, we have you covered. Just Venmo any dollar amount to Marissa @MarissaLCole or Laura @Laura-Warren26 by Wednesday of the Food Pantry collection week and we will shop for you.

4. Make a one-time or recurring donation to the Sudbury Community Food Pantry. You can donate directly through the pantry's website. Please send us the amount of your donation so we can keep a record of donations from our school.

Please reach out to Marissa Cole or Laura Warren with any questions.

Attention 2nd/3rd Grade: Family-Sponsored Staff Breakfast

10/22/2026 2:55 am

Attention: 2nd and 3rd Grade Families!

Roar & Recharge: A Staff Appreciation Breakfast Series

Our back-to-school parent-sponsored breakfast was such a hit with Loring staff that we’re bringing it back! This school year, we’re launching Roar & Recharge, a series of three special breakfasts designed to show our appreciation for everything our incredible staff does for our students and school community.

We’re kicking off the series with a Thanksgiving-themed breakfast, Grateful for Our Loring Staff, celebrating how thankful we are for the people who make Loring PAWsome! This first breakfast will be proudly sponsored by our 2nd and 3rd Grade families. 

2nd and 3rd Grade Families: Please SIGN UP HERE if you are able and willing to provide any of the items for a staff breakfast on Wednesday, November 4th. We are also looking for a few volunteers to collect items as they are dropped off and set up for the breakfast, so there are a few volunteer slots also listed. Thank you for helping us make our staff feel appreciated and starting this new tradition with a little extra gratitude!

K, 1st, 4th, and 5th Grade Families: Stay tuned for future opportunities to help sponsor a breakfast for your child(ren)'s grade!
