Happy National School Lunch Week! ๐ โโ๐ฅ
School lunches help keep our students healthy, full, and fueled to learn. As a participant in the Massachusetts Farm to School initiative, school lunches across our Nauset schools often feature locally grown, raised, or caught fruits, vegetables, grains, and proteins. Many meals also include fresh vegetables grown right in our schools' own hydroponic towers, greenhouses, and outdoor gardens. ๐ฑ๐๐
Thank you to our food services and nutrition teams who make sure that the lunches served in Nauset cafeterias are nutritious and delicious! ๐๐๐ค

The Brewster PTO is organizing food for staff during conferences next week, 10/22 and 10/23. PTO has organized an Amazon wishlist for items to provide to staff during teacher conferences. If you are able to fulfill any of these items, they will be delivered directly to school. The PTO is also happy to take any packaged items or fruit that folks may already have on hand and can be dropped off at Stony Brook or Eddy.
You may signup for items for items for staff during conferences here:

October is National Farm to School Month! ๐ฝ๐ซ Students at Eddy Elementary School kicked off Farm to School Month by harvesting and processing many pounds of kale from the school's garden with help from Mr. Guditus and Dave DeWitt, our district's Farm to School Program Coordinator! Farmer Dave taught Eddy students about how temperature, soil, and even local insects affected this year's kale crop while they picked, cleaned, and stored the vegetables. Soon, this kale will be turned into soup and salad that students will eat for lunch in Eddy's cafeteria! ๐ฑโ๐๐ชฒ
The Nauset Farm to School program uses classrooms and school gardens as dynamic learning spaces to connect students with healthy, locally sourced food and experiential learning opportunities. Nausetโs commitment to Farm to School programming is reflected in initiatives like our school gardens, indoor hydroponic units, cooking camps and clubs, local procurement in school meals, Farmer-in-the-School events, field trips, curriculum-based learning, and more! ๐ฅโ๐ซ

๐ซ๐๐ญPROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT DAY AT NPS:

Fifty years ago, in honor of the country's 1976 Bicentennial, Stony Brook Elementary School fourth graders planted 13 linden and maple trees near Town of Brewster, Cape Cod Town Hall to represent the original colonies. By the nation's 250th celebration this year, only 12 trees remained.
On Constitution Day, our Eddy Elementary School fourth graders helped replant the missing thirteenth tree alongside three former fourth graders who helped plant the original trees in 1976!
Thank you to Brewster town officials and DPW for involving a new generation of fourth graders in this experience!

It's #FlashbackFriday and we're going back to the first event of our new school year: New Staff Orientation!
In late August, just before Opening Day, we welcomed all of Nauset's new educators and the educator-mentor members of our Mentor and Induction Program to Nauset Regional Middle School for New Staff Orientation. Over two days, our new staff and mentors learned from one another prepared for a strong start to the school year.
It's going to be a great year at Nauset! โ๐

This week is National Arts in Education Week, which celebrates the transformative power of creative, visual, and performing arts in education!
All Nauset Public Schools students have the opportunity to create, thrive, and explore their passions through the arts. From art classes to band, chorus, theater, and dance to pottery and jewelry-making and so much more, our NPS students are engaged in the arts at every level of their education!
Recently, the metals and jewelry program at Nauset Regional High School was featured in both the September issue of the Manufacturing Jewelers & Suppliers of America's MJSA Journal and in The Provincetown Independent.
