You are cordially invited to attend:

Create and get physically active like our students do as you sing, draw, climb rock walls, immerse yourself in the Spanish language, and take a journey with a great book. Visit with our related arts specialists and get a feel for how the arts, world languages, physical education and media and technology enhance the physical well being and creativity of our students.
K-1, 2-3, and 4-5 parents will rotate through each specialty to experience the related arts through the eyes of their children.
Please join us for this very informative and highly interactive evening.

As you may have already heard, it’s fire prevention week Oct 4-10 focusing on burn awareness and prevention, as well as keeping homes safe from the leading causes of home fires.

The school has two practice fire drills each month. The kids had a visit from the fire department yesterday, and will continue to discuss safety and prevention at home.

The children in grades 3-5 are also asked to view several fire safety programs at home with their parents. Information will be sent home this week.
