Fowler Connections
So much to see and do at the Fowler School! #OneMaynard
We are #OneMaynard #UmaMaynard #UnoMaynard
Week of Jan. 9-12, 2023
There is no school on Monday, January 16 to allow the nation to pause, reflect, and serve others in the spirit of Dr. King.
Monday is Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr's birthday, and a national Day of Service. Please join us in pausing to reflect on the work that came before us, and the work we still need to do.
A great MLK Day Resource
As Martin Luther King Jr. Day approaches, educators across the nation will teach about King’s life and works. Countless others will echo his famous quotes. Few will offer a full picture of who King truly was—or of the collectivist movement that surrounded him. These resources can help you offer a fuller account of King, his peers and the ongoing legacy of their shared dreams and actions.
ACCESS Testing Announcement (for English Language Learners, or Multi-Lingual Scholars!)
I am writing to inform you that between January and March, ELL students will participate in the administration of the ACCESS for ELLs language proficiency test.
ACCESS provides a standardized measurement of academic language proficiency for English Language Learner (ELL) students throughout the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Each form of the test assesses the four language domains of Listening, Speaking, Reading, and Writing. This information allows us to monitor individual ELL student progress on an annual basis.
If you have any questions regarding these tests, please contact your child’s ELL teacher (Denise Hatch or Karen Murphy), or Principal Mike Barth.
Thank you to Sra. Soler for coordinating the upcoming Spanish Immersion Information Night!

GREEN MEADOW ELEMENTARY SCHOOL BUILDING PROJECT
The Green Meadow Elementary School project team has submitted its second MSBA submission! This submission is called the Preferred Schematic Report (PSR) and it advances the initial existing conditions verification, educational visioning & programming and Owner / Community coordination into multiple design alternatives, shows MSBA the design alternative evaluation process taken by the project team, and highlights which design alternative was ultimately selected at the end of the process.
Below is a link to a Google Drive folder that contains the previous Preliminary Design Program (PDP) submission as well as the recent PSR submission. As always, we thank you very much for your attention to the project, and we’ll continue to keep you informed as the project moves along the MSBA process!
