Sheehan School Core Four Values
Respect and Not Neglect ♦ Voice the Right Choice ♦ Listen, Learn, Try, Ask Why ♦ School Wide Pride
May 10, 2022
Dear Sheehan Families,
In celebration of Pride Month, Sheehan students and staff will be creating a temporary art installation on the fence that runs along the playground and soccer fields. This will include weaving hearts, rainbows, circles, words, and other symbols of inclusion into the fence celebrating our inclusive, welcoming, and diverse Sheehan School community. Sheehan students and staff will begin creating their art during the week of May 31st.
We invite Sheehan families to join us in our inclusion art project. Please visit the Sheehan School with your family during the month of June and add to our art installation! Let’s celebrate our beautiful diverse Sheehan community! Please be sure to take a family photo and send it to me at Kevans@westwood.k12.ma.us.
To support our community project, we kindly ask for and welcome any donations of yarn and ribbon in all different colors, lengths, and sizes. We will collect donations now through Friday, May 27th. Students may deliver donations to their classroom teacher. There will also be a collection bin at the front of the school outside the front door for your convenience.
Looking forward to honoring and celebrating our diverse and inclusive Sheehan community with all.
Please see attached flyer.

PTA Announcements
A to Z Connect - Important Update - ACTION REQUIRED
The Sheehan School PTA uses A to Z Connect as our membership platform.
We recently were notified that their system was upgraded and all families will need to create a new account. The old system should no longer be used. Please log into the new system to confirm your information. Returning users can use the previous username/password. New users, please create a new account. Only one account per family is needed. This website is where families will pay PTA dues, purchase items such as apparel for the annual school apparel sale, and tickets to the fall social. We also hope to utilize this site to coordinate other events throughout the year. Also, this website is where families can access the student directory. This directory is accessible for members who have paid membership dues. We anticipate that the directory will be available in early October. From the website, you can download the mobile app as well. Please contact Julie Slotnick at julie.slotnick@gmail.com with any questions or concerns.
The new website is: https://sheehanpta.membershiptoolkit.com
