As part of the C.A.R.E.S. initiative at the Wilkins School, students learn about how to best exemplify the traits of Community, Acceptance, Responsibility, Empathy, and Self Control throughout the school year. The Wilkins recently focused on the importance of self control. Congratulations to the Wilkins students pictured here for being recognized for exemplifying the positive character trait of self control!
The Wilkins School Student Council, under the direction of advisor Mrs. Pearl, organized a food drive last month for the Ilse Marks Food Pantry in Stoughton. Each grade at the Wilkins was assigned a different category of food to donate, with Wilkins families contributing 350 items! Student Council members are pictured here with the donations. Great job giving back to the Stoughton community!
Students at the Wilkins School enjoyed seeing Eddie, the Norfolk County Sheriff’s Office comfort therapy dog! Officer Michael Monaghan, Eddie's handler and partner, brought him to the Wilkins for a visit. Wilkins first graders are pictured here.
Earlier this school year, Mrs. Faria's kindergarten class at the Wilkins School won a statewide contest from the Massachusetts Department of Transportation to name a MassDOT snowplow. "Snowdrop" from the Wilkins School was one of 12 winning names in this contest for elementary and middle school classrooms across Massachusetts. MassDOT officials recently brought "Snowdrop" to the Wilkins for Mrs. Faria's class to see up close! State Senator Walter Timilty was on hand to present a citation from the State Senate as well. Mrs. Faria's class also received a $100 gift card for school supplies from the MassDOT. Congratulations to Mrs. Faria's kindergarten class at the Wilkins School!

More than 250 people attended the Books Before Bed Literacy Event at the Wilkins School! Students, family members, and staff wore pajamas and enjoyed reading to each other. Staff members modeled how to do an interactive read aloud and then families had an opportunity to practice these strategies as they read with each other. All students also left with a brand new book!
Third graders at the Wilkins School recently planted sunflowers and string beans as an introduction to their study of the lifecycle of plants.
Wilkins School kindergarteners recently learned about the Chinese New Year. They are pictured here with the dragon puppets they made!
Third grade students at the Wilkins School met with their kindergarten buddies to share the books they had both recently written. These partnerships are one of the social emotional learning initiatives at the Wilkins.
The Wilkins School Student Council, under the direction of advisor Mrs. Pearl, has organized a coat drive to help keep people in the local area warm this winter season. The Student Council members are pictured here in front of the donation bin at the Wilkins. Student Council members went to each class to announce the coat drive and encourage their fellow students (and school community) to donate. They have collected almost 100 new or gently worn coats. The coats will be given to Anton's Cleaners to be cleaned and distributed to those in need. Keep up the good work!
