Once again Ashaway School participated in the Westerly Columbus Day Parade with an incredible float designed by our PTO. This year's theme came from our Scholastic Book Fair, and the parade was the culminating event for lots of fun "Reading Oasis" activities!
Halina, our "Where is Your Reading Oasis?" contest winner, got to ride on the float in a special chair reserved especially for our "Float Pharoah". Doesn't she look regal? You can learn all about the contest and read some of the entries by

Sara Mitkowski, our PTO president, was presented with a ribbon and certificate declaring Ashaway School the winner of the Most Original School award!
