Hello from your PTO board, Tramy, Cedar, Julie and Amy.
We want our students to have opportunities to build community, develop their social skills—and have fun!
That's why we parents are hosting, for the third year, outdoor Fall Fest dances at the Boys & Girls Club located at 675 Watertown St, Newton, MA 02460.
- The events will each have a DJ, free photo booth, and concession stand with snacks and drinks sold for $1 each.
- There is no fee for entry.
- These are outdoor events that will continue in light rain. There is no rain date. It may be cool outside. We love to see students dressed up, but they should be comfortable, too.
These events are for Day Middle School students only. Each student attending must be pre-registered by a parent or guardian.
As an event run **entirely** by Day parents, we need MANY (60-80) parent/guardian chaperones, or the event will not happen. Please sign up here to commit to chaperoning an event. If your child is concerned about you being there, please let them know that you'll be in an assigned role and not focused on them at all. Chaperone zoom is on Wed Oct 11, 7:30-8:30pm.
6th grade: Friday, October 13 from 6:30-8:30pm (pre-register by 10/11)
7/8th grade: Friday, October 20 from 6:30-8:30pm (pre-register by 10/18)
STRICT NO-ADMITTANCE POLICY AFTER 7:00 PM.
