Deer Meadow Families,
We’ve had a busy November filled with opportunities for our students to learn, celebrate, and connect with our community! We also have so much to look forward to as we head into the holiday season.
Veterans Day Program
A heartfelt thank-you to Putnam County Hospital for sponsoring our Veterans Day program and to all of the veterans who were able to attend. It was an honor to recognize your service and give our students an opportunity to show their appreciation. Thank you for sharing this special day with our Deer Meadow family!
🌟 Career Night
We had a great turnout for Career Night! Thank you to the families, presenters, and community partners who helped make the evening a success. Our students enjoyed exploring different careers and learning about the many ways people contribute to our community.
🗳️ Learning About Voting
Our students practiced voting on Election Day! This gave them a chance to learn about making choices, having a voice, and participating in the voting process.
Please mark your calendars for these upcoming events, special traditions, and school breaks.
