Welcome to Winfield L. Morse School

It is with great pleasure that we welcome you to the 2011-2012 school year. Our goal is to provide an enriched learning environment where all children can achieve great success in reaching their fullest potential. Our mission is to work with families in helping children become curious, life long learners with the skills needed to become critical thinkers and problem solvers in an ever-changing world.

Our classrooms are designed to create a safe learning environment that supports all students at their current level of achievement and challenges individuals to pursue their interests. In celebrating our diversity we recognize that all members of our community have much to contribute and gain by learning from each other. Through our Character Education program we will foster the development of a shared set of principles and values to help us flourish as a community of respectful, responsible and empathetic human beings.

Our staff is composed of highly dedicated professionals who continue to develop their craft of teaching and learning. At Morse, we value the importance of feedback and a strong partnership between staff and parents. We encourage you to reach out to staff when you have a concern or a question. To learn more about our programs, please feel free to navigate our website where we will be sure to update you on all our special events and activities this year.  Together we want to wish you and your family an exciting and fulfilling academic school year.

Sincerely,

Mrs. Rosemary Prati and Staff
