OUR ANNUAL (2nd and 3rd grade) 
 FATHER/DAUGHTER 
GLITTER BALL DANCE 

New date : Wednesday March 23rd
No School the 24th- Professional Development Day

Thank you for your understanding while we have made every attempt to choose a date that would work for most families. This took a great deal of coordination between planners, school administration and the central office. We have many outside organizations that use rooms and all of these details led to a new date posting that took longer than some would have preferred. 
The Glitter Ball will be a fantastic event for all despite the interference of "mother nature"!

Safety for All at Delaney Morning Drop Off!



We are working really hard on the morning drop off procedures, and need everyone’s cooperation.  The safety of our students, staff and visitors is of primary importance.  We need to follow several procedures to keep it safe:

      Cones are placed along the sidewalk at both the Delaney and Annex ends of the building. Please pull up to the cones to let your children out and then proceed with caution back into the driving lane. Do not let children out at any other location unless you are parking.






Please make sure your children have all the clothing needed for the playground. They need boots when there is snow or mud. They need snow-pants when there is snow on the ground. 
Mittens and hats are necessary in the cold weather!

Thank you to our amazing custodial staff for  working so hard to have our schools ready after the storms!
