Pre-K to 8 Grandparents are invited to attend our Grandparent Open House hosted by the Advancement Office on the second floor of the Huffman Athletic Center at the Ledbetter Concourse.
Before and between all the Thanksgiving Feast lunch times on Wednesday, Nov 19, we will have a place to sit and visit and connect with other grandparents. We look forward to celebrating this joyful day of gratitude with our parents and grandparents!
We don't have contact information for all of our grandparents, so please share their information if you would like your child's grandparent to be invited to future Grandparent events. Simply email connect@darlingtonschool.org.
We’ve had several requests about ordering the black uniform jackets again. Before we move forward, we’d like to get an idea of how many people would be interested if we opened another order.
The company requires a minimum number of jackets to be ordered before they can process a new batch, so we’re gathering interest first.
If you’d like a jacket (or an additional one), please reach out to Wendy Payne wpayne@darlingtonschool.org by Wednesday, Nov. 19 with sizing, so we can determine if we meet the minimum to place another group order.

Ready to get “goosed”?
The Library is launching a fun new reading challenge for our Pre-K– to 2 students: Duck, Duck, Goose!
Just fill in a duck for every book read — that includes books read to students at home or in class! When a student has read 15 books, they’ll earn a special prize: their very own rubber ducky! Students can even complete the challenge more than once to earn multiple ducks. If 10 or more students in a class finish the challenge, their teacher will win a special Goose Trophy!
This program will run through December 12. If you have any questions, please feel free to email Mary Kate Fowee at mfowee@darlingtonschool.org.
Thank you for your support & Happy Reading!
