Once again our Fine Arts Dept. has great news to share. We had students recognized for their work at the State Scholastic Art Competition. Lea Fabre received a Gold Key (Fashion/Lion Mask) , Lara Sernberger a Silver Key (Printmaking) and Sarah Bresky a Silver Key (Drawing/self portrait).
Our student council ran a very successful food drive in December that helped to re-stock our local food bank. Much thanks to the group.
- The district has recently updated the parent resource page to add information about e-cigarettes. This is a great parent resource and with the addition of more information on vaping and e-cigarettes, it is worth looking at. https://sites.google.com/a/ewg.k12.ri.us/health-wellness-corner/jr-high-art-1/smoking-tobacco-e-cigarettes

Our Police Academy students under the direction of Sgt. Petrarca, SRO are hosting a "Parents Night Out" fundraiser that will be the talk of the town. They will babysit your children while you enjoy a night out for Valentines day. See the attached notice. They are filling up their reservation slots, so give Sgt. Petrarca a call at 397-6893 ext 248 to have your children join the fun. There are a limited number of openings available. It will be a win-win for all. You have a nice night out, the children have a great time at the high school and the Academy raises much needed funds.
Congratulations to the students and staff of Exeter-West Greenwich High School for being among the top 3 schools on the Rhode Island leaderboard of this academic year’s Vocabulary Bowl!
Leading Rhode Island in word mastery is no easy feat. It means our students have mastered more words by playing Vocabulary.com (6,510, and counting!) since October 1st than most schools in Rhode Island. It is a testament to the emphasis that has been placed on the importance of academic vocabulary that has been impressive, and -- as you know -- will pay dividends in enriching your students’ reading comprehension and overall literacy. Hats off to Mr. Hamlin for leading the charge!!
Enjoy the nice warm winter weather!
