Quashnet School will be hosting our annual Career Day on Friday, May 26. 

Volunteers are needed!

We welcome parents, guardians, family members, and friends to come and share their profession, trade, or hobby with students. You can share just with your child's class or several classes based on your availability. This is an engaging day where students get to learn about potential career paths. Please consider sharing your expertise. The greater variety of careers the better! If you would like to volunteer or have any questions please reach out to Mrs. Milde at kmilde@mpspk12.org. We hope to hear from you soon!

REMINDER- 

Field trip season is coming soon! In order to chaperone on a field trip, all volunteers MUST have an up-to-date CORI on file with the district. To complete this process use this link HERE to get an application. 

This CANNOT be done on the day of a field trip, it must be done several days in advance. Please plan ahead if you have arranged to chaperone a trip with the classroom teacher.

Wishing you a great week ahead. As always, if you have questions, concerns, suggestions, and/or something positive to share, please feel free to reach out! 

Respectfully, 

Principal O'Brien 

Celebrating Jiji and
some fun hands-on
