There is no school tomorrow, Friday, March 20th, in recognition of Eid-al-Fitr.

Eid al-Fitr marks the end of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan. The name Eid al-Fitr means “celebration of breaking the fast.” It is the first time Muslims return to eating during the daytime after fasting throughout the month of Ramadan. Eid is a time of celebration, joy, and gratitude, when Muslims gather with family and friends to exchange greetings, gifts, and sweets.

Session 3 clubs start next week! Please see the calendar below.

Grades 1–4 Only: If your child is interested in joining an after-school bracelet making club on early release Wednesdays, please register using this link. Depending on the number of students who sign up, a lottery may be used to determine participation. Additional details are included in the registration form.

We’re excited that this club was inspired and led by two of our 4th grade students. Student voice and choice in action!

The Director of Dining Services and Resident Dietician are looking to create a Food Advisory Board consisting of students, teachers, admin, nurses, parents, lunch monitors, and any other faculty or staff who have a passion for food. The purpose is to meet regularly during the school year to discuss our nutrition program, the breakfast and lunch menus, wellness initiatives, etc. 

If you are interested in joining this advisory board, please email Julia Paakkonen, Resident Dietician, at jpaakkonen@southwindsorschools.org. 

South Windsor Public Schools is now accepting applications for community peer role models in the preschool outreach program (POP) for the 2026-2027 school year.

You can learn more about POP by accessing our school district's website.

This spring, students will participate in state assessments as part of our annual testing cycle. Our teachers work diligently throughout the year to prepare students for success, and the results help inform our instructional practices to best support student learning.
