September 27th: Community Day 2019
How do we celebrate?
* Teachers weave into their mornings buddy class activities, community circles, time in the outdoor classroom, design projects, activities to explore, create and tinker.
* At 2:00 in the afternoon, we gather on the playground for our Husky Run. Each grade level takes a lap around our grounds to the cheers of everyone else.
* After the run (about 3:00), we head to the gym for a few rounds of our signature dance, The Husky Hustle.
Visitors are welcome to join us for the fun beginning with the run. Just be sure to sign in at the office with a photo ID and wear your visitor's sticker while on school grounds. If you know you are going to attend, please let your child's teacher know. They will share that information with the office so we can print some badges before families arrive.
