Dear Families,
The school year is off to a great start! Included in this post are updates about volunteer opportunities, student led conference sign ups, performance and guild faire, field study, and important dates for the school year.
Volunteer Opportunities:
We have many needs for volunteers:
Student Led Conferences: Student Led Conferences are Wednesday, October 29th and Thursday, October 30th from 8:00am-8:00pm. Please sign up with your student’s Literature teacher. Conference sign up sheets can be found outside of room 17.
Guilds: Guilds will begin on the afternoon of Friday, October 24th, and will be conducted every Friday afternoon from 12:30-2:00. Please plan on arriving 10 to 15 minutes early for set-up. The last day of guilds will be Friday, January 23rd. We will have a guild master/helper orientation on Thursday, October 16th at 2:30 in room 17.
We must have parents help with these Guilds, otherwise they cannot take place. Relatives or good friends willing to donate their time are also ok!! We would like TWO parents/adults per guild, that way if someone is gone one week, the other can cover.
Performance & Guild Faire: This years performance is entitled “The Birth of America” and will be held on Sunday February 8th along with the Guild Faire. Performance auditions will be on October 16th from 2:30-4:00.
