April 30-May 4

 

Dear ES Team,

Thank you to our PE team for planning and organizing a wet, wild, and incredibly fun day for our students! The fields were hot, but the positive energy made the day a really cool one!

Kudos to the G4 TA’s and Host Country Teachers for presenting a “Journey Through Vietnam” this week.  What a wonderful way to connect our Super Unit studies to Vietnamese class.  The event was beautifully presented to parents and guests—the students did a marvelous job sharing their research and the TA dance performance was definitely a highlight for all.

I’m looking forward to the Faculty Follies event next Saturday.  Thanks to everyone involved in the planning and organization of this fundraiser.  I know Ricki and Kristin are at the helm of this event and I walked into the art room this week to find Marjon and Chinh painting 70’s inspired decorations! Great teamwork!

I hope everyone enjoys the extra-long weekend!

Cheers!

Donna
