Service Project: December
We are collecting new stuffed animals - to be given to children suffering with AIDs and other children who are spending the holidays in the hospital.
Las Posadas: December 21
The last day of school before Christmas break is Tuesday, December 21, but school does not end until that night! All Upper School students lead in some way. Students in grades 7 & 8 take special leadership roles and so arrive early - at 6:30 PM.
Dressing for the Weather! Every day!
Our plan for park time is to go outside as many days as possible. Only extreme cold and rain will keep us indoors. Please make sure your child brings proper outdoor gear. If both the temperature and are at 20 degrees or above, we will go outside. At that temperature, students will be safe, so we will go out. Still, they will be safely uncomfortable, unless they are wearing hats and gloves. This means that hats, gloves and coats are needed every day now.
