FARM FRESH EGGS FOR SALE! After the usual winter pause in egg production, the Canfield chickens and ducks are once again busy laying eggs! They are now offering these delicious eggs as part of the ongoing fundraiser for the Sixth Year Trip to Nantucket. Get your farm fresh eggs, now available in the Elementary foyer. We will have a donation box next to the eggs where your contribution may be placed. There will be only 2 to 3 dozen eggs available weekly, as we currently have 8 hens and 2 ducks (usually) producing daily. So hurry...don’t miss these tasty eggs! Thank you for all your support!

This week’s montage provides more than a snapshot: it captures what is happening in our environments every day. It illustrates what schools should look like. Nothing in the world is perfect, but, boy, this comes pretty close. Watch, enjoy and imagine what education could be like for every child in this world.

The Cobb School Thanks...

...our amazing Pancake Breakfast Chairpersons, Jenn Lam-bert, Liddy Doyle & Laura Radmore! We are so grateful for your service to The Cobb School. Thank you also to the wonderful volunteers who set up for the event, flipped pancakes, bussed tables and did everything else that helped to make the Pancake Breakfast a huge success. Thank you!

...to all those who supported our Sixth Years with a dona-tion at the Pancake Breakfast. The tumbling and games organized by the students proved to be an enormous suc-cess, especially because the drizzle kept us inside Saturday morning. Thank you, Sixth Years and your supporters. The children raised $120 for their Sixth Grade trip.

...to every community member who purchased tickets to our upcoming auction! Every ticket sold before today earned its owner a free raffle ticket for the big night! And special thanks to those who sponsored a staff member by purchasing his or her ticket for the event. The generosity goes on and on and on. Thank you.

...to every parent and staff member who purchased mer-chandise to support the students in the their efforts to raise funds for the Heifer International Project. With your help the students raised $90 for the cause. Thank you!

...Daniel to Ms. Pemba’s class and Toby to Mrs. Ebersol’s! Please be sure to welcome their parents, Sarah and Chris.
