The first lunar eclipse of 2022 will take place on May 15 in our zone.

A total lunar eclipse, which happens as the full moon moves into the deep umbral shadow of the Earth, will be visible in total phase from portions of the Americas, Antarctica, Europe, Africa and the east Pacific. Meanwhile, a penumbral eclipse, an event arising when the moon is in the lighter penumbral shadow from our planet, will be visible in New Zealand, eastern Europe and the Middle East. Eclipse scientist Fred Espenak has listed May 15th's full moon as a so-called supermoon, in which the full moon is at perigee (its closest to Earth of the month), making it a Super Blood Moon eclipse.

Our lost and found is overflowing with coats, jackets, and hoodies. We will have it on display in front of the school all of this week. If you are missing something, please send your child to look or come by and locate lost items throughout the day.

Preschool Promise (PSP) is a free, state-funded, high-quality, full-time preschool option for 3- and 4-year old Oregon children who are living at or below 200% of the federal poverty level. PSP programs are culturally-relevant early child care and education programs that take place in a wide variety of settings across Lane County, including home-based, center-based, and school-based care. All preschools offer hours comparable to full day Kindergarten and provide the necessary supplies and food free of charge. School days, hours of operation and availability of transportation vary between preschools. Families are able to apply for whichever 3 PSP preschools meet their needs best.
