SNOW HILL ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

Hello Families,
We have a new way to share school supply lists for the upcoming school year!

https://www.worcesterk12.org/page/school-supply-lists.

That's a wrap ✨ Our Life on the Eastern Shore Summer Academy has ended! We learned math and literacy skills while learning about our community and home town. 🌾🚜🐟 A HUGE shoutout to our community partners for donating time and resources to our program: Snow Hill Fire Company Taylor House Museum Assateague Coastal Trust Kite Loft Cross Farms We appreciate you more than you know. Have a wonderful rest of summer!

Thank you Snow Hill Fire Company for making Water Day a success! We appreciate your partnership and what you do for our community ❤️🚒💦

☀️💦 WATER DAY REMINDER! 💦☀️

Get ready for some splash-tastic fun during Summer Academy tomorrow!
Please remember to bring:
👙 Bathing suit
🧼 Towel
👕 Change of clothes
🧴 Sunscreen
🍧 Money for Kona Ice

Let’s stay safe, have fun, and cool off the best way possible! 🌊

WCPS families, as you gear up for Back to School shopping, we want you to be aware of an important change. iPads across the school system have been refreshed to a newer model and are ready to go for students' return this September. The new model now requires headphones and earbuds to be USB-C compatible, so be sure to check that compatibility when purchasing from your child's school supply list. All lists have been updated to reflect this compatibility; view them online at https://tinyurl.com/WCPSSupplyList. #WeAreWorcester

💦 Water Day is Coming to Summer Academy! 💦
Get ready for some splash-tastic fun! This Thursday, July 31st, we’ll be hosting Water Day during Summer Academy. Please send your child with:
👕 A bathing suit and change of clothes
🩳 A towel
🩴 Water-friendly shoes
🧴 Sunscreen

It’s going to be a day filled with learning, laughter, and lots of water play!

There are still spots open for PreK-3 at SHES! Register online today ❤️🦅✨

🌟 Wishing a heartfelt farewell to our beloved Educational Assistant, Sheri Johnson, as she retires after nearly 21 years of dedicated service to Snow Hill Elementary School! 💛 Sheri has been a true source of love and light for generations of our youngest Eagles, guiding Pre-K learners with her warm smile, calm spirit, and ever-present sense of humor. Her impact on our school community is immeasurable, and her presence will be deeply missed. And judging by this picture—feet kicked up and smile shining—it looks like retirement is already off to a fabulous start! 🛋️😄 Thank you, Sheri, for the compassion, care, and joy you brought to SHES every single day. 💐 We wish you all the happiness in this next chapter—you’ve certainly earned it! 💫💚💛 #OnceAnEagleAlwaysAnEagle #SHESLove #ThankYouSheri #RetirementModeActivated

We had so much fun at our Bubbles and Beats incentive today! Congratulations to all of the hard work and displays of the Eagle Way throughout Quarter 4! 🫧🎵🎤
