Spencer-East Brookfield RSD

For 13 years, World Read Aloud Day has called attention to the importance of sharing stories by challenging participants to grab a book, find an audience, and read-aloud! The global effort, created by the non-profit LitWorld and sponsored by Scholastic, is celebrated annually in over 173 countries and is all about bringing people together through the shared connection of reading aloud in all of our communities.

Thank you to our local DPW crews and our maintenance staff who have put in overtime to clear our schools and parking lots. We know it was a lot of hard work… It is appreciated! #ThankYou #ChooseSEBRSD

2022-2023 Kindergarten Search Forms were mailed out earlier this week to all families in the district that registered a child with the town census who will be 5 years old on/by 8/31/2022.

This #MLKDay, we feel this quote embodies how educators help kids grow to be their authentic selves: "The function of education is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically... Intelligence plus character–that is the goal of true education."-Martin Luther King Jr.

On behalf of all of us @ChooseSEBRSD, enjoy your long weekend! ⭐️
