'Tis the Season

Image result for ChristmasBeginning today and continuing for most of next week, there will be many special activities going on in the school to mark the Christmas Season and to reward students for their efforts in our fall fundraiser. Here is the itinerary as it stands today:

Some students remind me on a regular basis about our time in the snow in Curry Park that we also earned.  I have not forgotten, but it will be delayed until after Christmas.  The cold and snow have come up quickly and this week it was too cold.  Secondly, I think it is better to complete units of study before Christmas rather than continue them after Christmas, so we are completing work in a timely manner.
