Hello East Derry Families,
How can it be the end of November? I am so grateful to be at East Derry and share in the lives of you all. Each day, the staff here welcomes your children into the classrooms and encourages them to be the best they can be. Our PTA continues to support us as this month, the students enjoyed an exciting assembly, Slapstick Science. There’s nothing like learning, laughing, and having fun at the same time!

I also want to recognize Mrs. Dickerson for facilitating a very successful book fair and Ms. Mail for hosting a workshop for the PTA Reflections Contest. Shout out to the whole staff as our Parent/Teacher conferences were a big success, and I am in awe of the true partnership between our staff and your families!

As we approach December, my hope is that everyone stays healthy and enjoys this extra long weekend ahead.
