The "Books Are Fun" Book Blast: Our school's third annual Book Blast has officially begun! Elementary students will bring home a "treasure map" this week that includes instructions for how they can sign up for the event, which offers free books and prizes to children in preschool through sixth grade. Last year, the program was so successful that every student was given at least eight free books! Elementary students who are registered for the Book Blast are also eligible to win the Epic Treasure Chest, which is filled with several amazing items, such as an Amazon Fire tablet, an inflatable chair, a burrito blanket, and even a glow in the dark airfort. To register your child, you are welcome to follow the instructions on your child's treasure map, or you can simply use the link here: https://app.booksarefun.com/CanaanSch05903

The Community Builders Hub has been helping to convene partners to explore creative collaborations to help with issues of importance to community members, including the lack of childcare options in the area of northern Coos County, NH and northeastern Essex County, VT. If your family is in need of childcare or after school care within the next year, please consider filling out this brief survey to help us determine the current needs of our communities. Real solutions are forming, but public input is needed to move things forward. Please submit responses here by January 22, 2025. Thank you for your time!
