Good evening. This is a message from the Sanford School Department. We apologize for calling so late but due to the weather forecast and impending snow storm, there will be no school on Tuesday, March 14, 2023. We are making the notification now to help with planning. This will be our 5th snow day. The last day of school is now Tuesday, June 13th.
Last week, Mrs. Sturtevant's and Ms. Howard's students at Margaret Chase Smith had the opportunity to share their recent animal informational and "how to" writing pieces with other students within the building. These coyotes did a great job creating chapters to organize their information, adding labels to their illustrations as well as adding transition words to connect their steps.
