Dress Up Day- So Much Fun It's Scary!

Pirates

"Ohhh.... Who lives in a pineapple under the sea?"

The annual dress up day sponsored by the students council was a another huge success.

Sponge Bob

Sponge Bob Square Pants!

Many students chose to come to school in costume and participated in trick or treating at selected classroom during the lunch hour!

Mime

A mime doesn't speak but they can still trick or treat.

Dress up fun continues tonight with the Hallowe'en Dance. Admission is $6.00 with a student card and $5.00 with a costume. Sounds like a scarily good time!

Bee

Don't worry... bee happy! Hallowe'en is coming!

We Loved New York!

Central Park

Trip members pause in Central Park for a photo op!

The arts trip to New York returned this Sunday evening after a fantastic trip to Manhattan. The focus of the trip was to directly apply arts curriculum. Students learned about famous architecture, attended drawing and acting classes, watched Broadway and Off Broadway shows and visited some of the best art collections in the world!

Break Dance

Spencer shows us his street dancing moves!

It wasn't all school related. Students did have time off to enjoy the city and see the sights and along the way they bumped into a few famous New Yorkers.

Read Between The Lions

Candace and Rachel "read between the lions" in front of the New York Public Library.

Want to see more of the trip?
