We are pleased to announce that we have acquired SplashMath for use in grades K-2 in all of our elementary schools! TenMarks is an online math program that provides students with an opportunity to practice the math concepts and skills that they learn about in class.

On SplashMath, your child can work independently on grade level math concepts at any time within a
structured, flexible, and supportive platform. It works well
on laptops, phones, or iPads!

Teachers will be sending home letters with your child's account information. A letter is attached that will tell you how to download the SplashMath App! More information about optional summer math practice will be sent out as we get closer to the end of the school year.

Feel free to contact Elizabeth Kaplan, Elementary Math/Science Coordinator with any questions.  elizabeth.kaplan@watertown.k12.ma.us

Recycle used Markers in the cardboard boxes located on each floor by the elevators.

Crayola ColorCycle

Crayola and schools across North America are banding together to help Kids understand the importance of their role in protecting the environment. That’s why Crayola launched ColorCycle. Through this initiative, students in K-12 schools across the continental United States and parts of Canada can collect and repurpose used Crayola markers.
Crayola ColorCycle will accept all brands of plastic markers, not just Crayola markers.  That includes dry erase markers and highlighters! ColorCycle will eliminate placing hundreds of tons of markers into landfills.
