Educating Our Kids Together:
The Communities of Brattleboro, Guilford, Dummerston and Putney
November 3, 2016 at 6:30pm
WHERE: Putney Central School
Formed in October 2015, your Act 46 WSESU Study Committee has worked to craft a plan that supports all of our local schools. This plan fulfills the requirements of education law Act 46 by offering substantial equity in the quality and variety of educational opportunities, lead students to achieve or exceed the VT Education Quality Standards, maximize operational efficiency, promote transparency and accountability, and deliver public education at a cost that parents, voters and taxpayers value.
From Today’s History 10/29/16…
1863:
For the pupils in the High School – There is a certain number which may be divided into four parts in such a way that if you add 2 to the first part subtract 2 from the second, multiply the third by 2 and divide the fourth by 2, the sum, remainder, product, and quotient, will be the same. What is the number?
Express Fluency is offering a weekend French intensive November 4th-6th and a trip to Quebec November 10-12. Both of these opportunities are geared toward “intermediate” French speakers.
Many of us studied French for years in school and have lots of vocabulary and grammar rules locked away in our brains, yet we struggle to speak. This class will help unlock your brain and improve your comprehension and speaking skills. It draws upon the latest language-acquisition research to help students speak French comfortably. Conversation, storytelling, videos, and reading are all part of this dynamic and entertaining class.

Hey, y’know what time of the year it is?
OCTOBER.
This means it gets dark out..
This means when your children* are dressed in dark colors I can’t see them, especially when there’s lots of traffic coming the other way with their headlights on, and your children are standing by the side of the road where there’s no streetlight.
Now, obviously your children are not maimed or dead – EVEN THOUGH THEY DARTED INTO THE ROAD – because my headlights picked up their movement at the last possible second.
