Today Kindergarten and Grade 3 were presented with a fire safety training by Fireman Barbagallo, of the Gloucester Fire Department.  Below are some pictures.

The Math Olympiad Celebration was held last night.  East Gloucester Schools top scorer was Esme Sarrouf.  Thanks to Mrs. Parsons for running this great program.

The EGS school-wide read was The Secret Zoo by Bryan Chick.  During two surprise assemblies today Bryan Chick talked about writing the book. How lucky were the students to be able to meet and hear the author talk about a book they all read?  This was generously sponsored by the EGS  PTO.  

The first grade class is in training.  They are training to become Super Heroes of first grade.  The Super Hero status helps them complete difficult tasks in class for example tests and really hard new concepts.  This is a great example of "Growth Mindset" in action.
