3) We had our first practice evacuation drill today. The students did great. Many thanks to all the staff for their continued support in keeping everyone safe.
4) Car loop request- all cars should come from downtown on Charles Street whenever possible to avoid congestion.
WAS Families,
1) Our gear store has launched, this will be a great opportunity for a William Allen t-shirt, fall gear, or an early holiday gift...

2) Drop-off and pick-up is going well. Please observe our no-idling policy.
Good Afternoon William Allen Families!
We hope everyone is having a great summer, as here at the school, everyone is working hard to prepare for the new school year. You will receive letters and/or hear from your classroom teachers as the first day of school draws nearer.
We also need your help before the school year starts. Please share with friends and neighbors that we are looking to hire paraeducators for the school year and cafeteria supervisors for the school year.
The cafeteria supervisors work on an hourly basis daily for 2 hours/day, supervising children at lunch and recess. This is a great opportunity for getting started working in a school or for those who can afford a few hours to help and get paid for it at the same time.
Building paraprofessionals are on site for 6 hours/day (minimum) for 5 days/week and help out throughout the building with various student needs. There are several benefits to being a paraprofessional, including district-provided course reimbursement toward professional growth. Through a new program launched at New England College, high school graduates who are hired as paraprofessionals at William Allen can also be dually enrolled at New England College and receive their Bachelor of Arts in Elementary Education or Special Education in less than 3 years! NEC also offers financial aid for their program for those who qualify.
Email Mr. Gray, gray.d@sau54.org, or call the school if you are interested in either job.
This is also our first post of the new school year, so this also doubles as a test that we have everyone's information correct. Please check with friends and neighbors to see if they also received this. If someone did not, have them contact the school at 603-332-2280.
