HI 2D, I can’t believe I am sending our final newsletter, but I know we will be connected forever due to this amazing year in 2nd grade. Last week our beach day was perfect. Beautiful weather, a nice, safe walk down, and lots of fun together splashing and building!

Monday is Field Day! Please make sure students have a towel, change of clothes, sun block, and sturdy shoes for competitive games. It will be a cookout lunch, but feel free to pack a lunch if your child doesn’t like burgers or hotdogs. Scholl still starts at 8:10 and ends at 2:40, just a regular day but with lots of fun games outside with water! At this point, it looks rainy and the plan is to continue on if it’s overcast but not if it’s down pouring, will keep you posted. 

Tuesday is the egg drop right after the final fun run and community meeting. I hope students are starting those this weekend if they are not already working on them! Please let me know if you need any materials (ie boxes, foam, newspaper, etc.). I would really like for all the children to have something to drop. Reminder: eggs will be supplied at school, please do not put eggs in yet and allow for a space for us to put the egg in.

On Wednesday I always like to celebrate my summer birthday with my class and I will be bringing in a treat (Italian Ice). We will be dismissed at 12:00 on the last day, then it is off to summer vacation!

Thank you all again for your communication and support this year, it takes a village and I really loved ours.

~Summer

Hi! Welcome! I am your 2nd grade teacher, Mrs. DeSouza. I was born and raised on Martha’s Vineyard and care deeply about this island and our community. I love the beach, hikes in nature, teaching and learning. I have two amazing daughters, a wonderful husband, and a pup named Rusty.  I can’t wait to meet you all and get to know you. ❤️
