The INSPIRE School

Today the students had a special visitor. Officer Frank, the Greenfield MA Police Departments’ comfort dog came to say hello!

The students all had a chance to meet Officer Frank and his partner Officer Matt Llewelyn. They really enjoyed making a new friend, (and so did Officer Frank)!

A big thank-you to GPD for allowing Matt and Frank to stop by!

Our school held an Apple Treat Competition with all the classes working on their respective class treat. Our students and staff worked hard and made some delicious treats! Congratulations to Ray’s class for clenching the final victory!

Today we were notified that another member of our school has contracted COVID. This is the fourth person at INSPiRE to become sick in the span of just over one week. The number of cases in the school has now reached a concerning level.

In an effort to protect our school community, including those with medical conditions that place them at elevated risk of severe illness, we have chosen to close the campus for the remainder of the week. The school will return to normal operations on Monday May 23rd.

The teachers will offer remote learning to the students for the remainder of the week. Your child’s teacher is sending a letter home with them today containing details of how that will work.

We deeply regret the disruption this will create in both your child’s, as well as your household routines, but we feel this decision is in the best interest of everyone’s health and safety.

Due to the anticipated poor road conditions in many of our sending districts, we are running on a 2 hour delay today, March 24th. Drive safely!

The school is on winter break from 2/21 through 2/25. We reopen 2/28. Stay safe & healthy, and enjoy your time off!

Snow Day!

We will be closed Friday, February 4th due to the inclement weather. Stay safe, and see you Monday!

We have been made aware some school districts are running on a delay tomorrow. While we don’t have any control over when the various transport companies pick up your children, INSPIRE will be open at our regular time.
All staff are to arrive by 8:00, and we will welcome our students in beginning at 8:30, as usual. See you tomorrow!
