Spring ART show!
The Annual Student Spring Show at the Creamery Arts Center is coming up and Shannon needs some volunteers to help prepare the artwork. We host this student show along with the North Fork High School every spring. After school on Monday, May 2nd Shannon could use help with matting and labeling. On Tuesday, May 2 (time to be determined) she could use help hanging the show at the Creamery Arts Center. Finally, on Friday, May 6th there will be an opening reception and we need donations of seltzer water, fruit juice, and paper cups to make a punch for the event. Please email Shannon if you are available to help with any of these show preparations. **See flyer on our website for event details.

You can still order a Yearbook. The yearbook was organized by the YEARBOOK STAFF (appointed 5th and 6th graders) with our advisor JACK BAIR. You can pay with a check or cash. A yearbook costs $20.00. Thank you for your support!
Montessori Moment
Over the coming weeks you are going to get to see what different Montessori quotes mean to our students. First, second and third graders worked in self selected groups. First they chose a Montessori quote then they created a collage reflecting their understanding of the quote.
How do you balance responsibility and independence in your family life?
What happens if we lean too far towards responsibility or too far towards independence?
Ask your children what they think this quote means and how they would illustrate it.
