Notable Updates
 
Ordering Lunch
Weston schools are providing bagged lunches for students who would like to order lunch instead of bringing it from home.  The bagged lunches are brought to the classroom daily before lunch time.  Here is the link to the school lunch menu:  https://www.westonschools.org/country/blog/2017/09/25/lunch-menu/.  The order form link is above the menu.  It says “Click here for the school lunch order form.”  You will need your child’s Student ID Number, which can be found in Infinite Campus. You will order weekly and must complete the entire week choosing “No Lunch” on the days you will not want lunch.   Changes or updates after the form is submitted should be called or emailed to Melanie at 781-786-5292 or pleskom@weston.org.  All orders must be received no later than 8:00 am for service that day. The weekly order form will be updated each Friday by 1:30 PM.  If you have any questions about ordering lunch, please contact Food Services by phone at (781) 786-5321 or email at concannonk@weston.org.
ESSER Family Survey
As part of the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021, the Weston Public School District has received grant funds administered through the Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief (ESSER) Fund. The American Rescue Plan Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief (ESSER III) Fund was authorized to provide states with funding to support the nation’s schools in safely reopening and sustaining safe operations of schools while meeting the academic, social, emotional, and mental health needs of students resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic.
The ESSER III must be prioritized for in-person learning and learning loss mitigation. Please take a few minutes to provide your feedback and input into our planning process. Thank you for your support and cooperation.
