With Gratitude
As we move into Thanksgiving Week,
Thank You to everyone who has contributed to making our first trimester of 2019-20 such a huge success! While we're all tired and much looking forward to a restful week off, I can say with confidence that I'm looking forward to our first day back from break, when we get to do more amazing things.
Students, Good Luck (rather, Good Skill) in Finals Week! I wish you all a wonderful week off. May you rest, spend precious time with your families, and come back rejuvenated and ready to take on Trimester 2!
I am Thankful for You!
HUUUUUGE Shout out to our Silent Auction Committee Members & Volunteers
Ladies, I could not begin to articulate just how much I (and the students) appreciate your dedication to our program! We would be lost without you!
THANK YOU, Heather Gertzki, Nora George, Alicia Breton, Melissa Conrey, Julita Cummings, Audra Dorazio, Ulrika Lerner, Allison Paul, Anne-Marie Sweeney, Nicole Tappin, and Susan Wong!
Sage Creek Foundation Arts Liaison NEEDED!
Now that the year is underway, we can begin to prepare for an eventful season in Theatre, Music, Dance, Photography, 3D Design, Arts 1, 2, 3 and AP Art History.
With our concerts, performances, visual arts shows and community outreach, we are looking for a few parents to help support us alongside the Sage Creek Foundation. Our hope is for these parent leaders to meet with teachers and members of the Foundation once a month.
We are looking for any parent with experience in organizing, event planning, decorating, fundraising and leadership. We are requesting about 4 hours of your time a month with any of these roles and can discuss VAPA parent support committee groups in greater detail in December when the committee is formed. These parents would act as Arts Liaisons for the Sage Creek Foundation and our VAPA team.
FYI: While committee members don't all have to be music parents, it would be great to have music represented. We will be diving into the Festival of the Arts very soon!
Please let me know if you are interested!
