Dear Sheehan Families,
Thank you for the warm welcome as I have transitioned to the Interim Principal position at Sheehan School. As many of you know, before becoming the Director of Social and Emotional Learning in the district, I was the Principal of the Martha Jones School for ten years and it has been so much fun returning to the principal role these past few weeks. While I have worked with many of the terrific staff at Sheehan for years, it has been a pleasure getting to know the students and meeting many of you. I hope to see you at some of the amazing school events that take place here at Sheehan and can’t wait to get to know you better as the year progresses. There are many things coming up in the next few weeks, so be sure to check out the Week Of section on the website each week for information on current happenings.
We recently started the Disability Awareness Read Aloud Program, with volunteer readers coming in each month to read books and lead discussions on a variety of disability topics. The goal of the program is to expose all students to various types of disabilities across grade levels as we continue to support an inclusive environment for all students and build each student’s understanding of our similarities and differences and what makes each of us unique. A special thank you to all of the volunteer readers, I appreciate your help.
I look forward to working with each of you. Partnering with parents/guardians allows for the greatest outcomes for our students and your input and feedback is important and appreciated. Please feel free to stop by and say hello any time you are at school, or reach out to me if you need anything.
In partnership,
Donna Tobin
Mission
The mission of the Sheehan Elementary School PTA is to create an inclusive and connected community of students, families, and educators through enriching educational experiences, teacher appreciation, and community-building events. We hope to create greater bonds between parents of Sheehan students, as well as fundraise for the PTA to ensure that they can continually provide resources to enhance and improve curriculum. The PTA is fundamental in supporting cultural enrichment programs, field trips, computer equipment, recess supplies, art programs, classroom supplies, and so much more.
There are always opportunities for parent involvement. Just take a look at our PTA Committee Responsibilities below for information on all our committees. If you are interested in getting involved, we would like to hear from you!
