Lippitt Elementary

K-8 students are finishing their beginning-of-the-year testing on our curriculum platform, iReady. What does this mean? Why is iReady My Path so crucial to individual learning growth? These questions and more are answered here: https://www.warwickschools.org/article/913040

We are in awe of this beautiful mural outside of Lippitt Elementary School! Special thanks to the artists, Peter Geisse & Mika Seeger, as well as the students & staff who all created tiles to be included. What an incredible, lasting memory & masterpiece!

There will be a FREE flu vaccine clinic happening in Warwick soon. Here’s some important information about the FREE flu vaccine clinic: • Register online at www.schoolflu.com to schedule an appointment. • Online registration is required to ensure the availability of the vaccine. • Insurance information will be collected, but the vaccine is FREE whether you have insurance or not. The flu is a serious, highly contagious, and sometimes deadly disease. Catching the flu means missing days of work and school. You might even have to spend time in the hospital. Don’t take the risk — the flu vaccine is your best protection against the flu. For more information, visit health.ri.gov/flu/, or call the Department of Health’s information line at 401-222-5960.
