Next week: the 90s are back at Briar Glen (Booyah!)
You thought the 90s were over? As if!
We're buggin' to spend the week celebrating a decade that was all that and a bag of chips. (Duh.)
Everyone is invited to join us at 10 a.m. Monday, May 17, when Briar Glen Principal Mitch Dubinsky (that's his name - don't wear it out) and a few special guest stars open the 1996 Briar Glen time capsule that has been sealed for 25 years. Anyone is welcome to join the broadcast at: https://youtu.be/Y_VpKqiI4mI
During the week, students are welcome to dress in totally awesome 90s style as they research the 1990s: what life was like, what things cost, and how the decade compares to today. Students will also have the chance to identify their current teachers from a 1996 photo. That should be easy. Not!
Finally, teachers will be working with students to write letters to their future selves and we will seal up a time capsule to be opened at Briar Glen in 2046.
Fire up your Game Boy, feed your Tamagotchi, and join us for a trip down memory lane!
(If you don't want to join us, well, like, whatever. Talk to the hand.)
