We will take the time to honor our Veterans through song and written pieces. Students should remember to wear their Boy/Girl Scout uniforms or Patriotic Colors. Families may fill out a Veteran’s Biography for our Wall of Honor. Please also note the “Veterans Day Invite” if you know a veteran who would like to participate in our celebration. Return both forms to Lindsay Given by November 1, 2022. We will also be collecting goods for the Home of the Brave organization. Please see their wishlist attached.

Thanks to all of the families who have joined our fabulous PTA. The State of CT requires us to submit our preliminary membership list by 10/15 so if you are still thinking of joining, now is the time. Our hope is that all of the teachers and families in our community will participate. We do not want the membership fee to make joining prohibitive for anyone so please reach out to Traci Gallagher at ptatraci@gmail.com to have your fee waived. Click the link to the membership form.

Turkey Trot - November 24, 2022, beginning at 9:00!
It’s the second year of this fun run and we are so excited to make it a full community event. We welcome runners and walkers of all abilities and ages - there are three options - 1, 2, or 3+ miles (or just come cheer on your friends). The run benefits not only the Calf Pen PTA but Purple Pantry Boxes and The Cure Starts Now. Our own Avery Lafferty is a 5th grade student at CPM battling brain cancer so we have chosen to share proceeds with The Cure Starts Now in her honor. Let’s do it for Avery!
