Reminder - Our next Community Conversations will be hosted by the Board of Trustees on Tuesday, January 31 via ZOOM. Link and registration can be found in your email. We hop you will join us as we discuss building community.
The Bay Farm team was heartbroken by the news of the horrific tragedy in Duxbury last night. We are deeply saddened by the loss of life, especially within our Duxbury community. Details of the case have not been released, but we know that no Bay Farm child was directly involved.
I spoke with the teachers and staff this morning before arrivals. While we will not talk directly about this tragic event with the students in school, this tragedy happened in our community, and some students may become aware and want to discuss it. Brooke and our entire staff are always available to support anyone, student or family, who needs it.
Mental health challenges are increasingly common, especially in young families. If you or anyone you know needs help, please know our entire team is here.
Disturbing events like these reinforce the need for a strong and supportive community. Our thoughts are with this family.
Sincerely,
Conrad
Sir Gawain and the Green Knight Play Performance is this Friday at 7:00 PM and Saturday at 2:00 PM. We hope you will join us!

Elementary II had a blast this week working in 2D &3D building. Students mastered skills with 3D pens & built some impressive things. Students also had an opportunity to design their very own 3D buddy on the Toybox printer. #BayFarmMontessori
Reminder: School is closed on Monday, January 16 for MLK Day.
Last week ELII students got busy creating chain reactions as Domino Masters! Students worked both individually and in groups to create a chain reaction using dominos. Students reviewed and practiced building techniques such as the ball drop, direction levers, falling towers, up the stairs and rolling reactions. ELII took their builds a step further with the incorporation of other materials such as tubes, noodles, blocks and balls of all sizes. Using dominos is good practice in precision, placement and a steady hand. They also teach the importance of learning from your mistakes and testing trajectory. Much fun was had by all.
Thank you to ELI parent, Mike Count, for visiting the classrooms last week to discuss the engineering and design of docks and their effect on water and how it flows.
