I want to commend your children and the staff here at the Roderick School for their resiliency after last week's horrible tragedy. Our community continues to keep the people of Newtown in our thoughts and prayers.
It was certainly a busy week here at the Roderick. I wanted to share with you some of the great things that had happened.
On Monday, our sixth grade students headed out to the Hanover Theatre in Worcester to attend the play A Christmas Carol. Students in Grade 6 had the opportunity to compare and contrast the play after reading the play in class and viewing the play at the theatre. The students looked great heading out to see the play!
Students in Mrs. Coleman's class did a masterful job presenting the play Everywhere Holidays by Alice Very. The students worked really hard preparing for Tuesday's show. Thank you to all the family members who attended the play.
The entire fourth grade celebrated Polar Express day on Thursday. Students listened to the Caldecott Medal book written and illustrated by Chris Van Allsburg and participated in many integrated activities throughout the day. I am thankful I was able to take part in this wonderful experience.
As a reminder, winter break will begin on Monday, December 24th. Students will return to school on Wednesday, January 2nd.
I want to wish all Roderick families every happiness this Holiday Season and prosperity in the New Year!
Stephen S. Grenham, Principal
