December 4, 2023
Dear Sheehan Families,
Today begins National Schools Inclusive Week. Inclusive Schools Week is December 4th - 8th. This year, Inclusive Schools Week focuses on the theme “ Draw Me In.” During this week, all students in our Sheehan School community will take part in activities intended to celebrate the diversity of our community and promote acceptance and inclusion of everyone.
At Sheehan, our students will be engaging in classroom Read Alouds and classroom conversations around friendship, inclusion, what it means to be a good friend, what it means to feel included, and share the gifts each student brings to our school and their classroom.
Our students will be creating a color mosaic which is a larger piece of artwork on our walls made up of each student’s individual pieces to represent unity, community, kindness, and inclusivity. We will display this All - School Collage on the bulletin board outside of the main office.
Inclusive Schools week allows us all to take a moment to celebrate the progress we have made toward building a more inclusive school community while committing to continue this work each and every day.
Have a wonderful week.

A to Z Connect - Important Update - ACTION REQUIRED
The Sheehan School PTA uses A to Z Connect as our membership platform.
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,
and 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 to 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 Kate Martucci at
sheehan.pta.secretary22@gmail.com with any questions or concerns.
