Sshhhhhh.....this is a secret

For those of you who don’t know, Mrs. Poeske, the beloved nurse at Ayers, is retiring after many years of loving and taking care of children.

The Ayers PTO is putting together a scrapbook for her with cards, letters and any pictures you may want to share. Please share this information with friends, but don’t let on to Mrs. Poeske about this project! 

Items can be sent to Kathy Faulkner Ayers PTO President, 37 Herrick Street. Beverly 01915.

You may also make a donation here - the money raised to will to buy bike racks for Ayers in her honor (she loves to bike ride and you may have seen her biking to Ayers in the nice weather ) and a donation to her favorite charity.
