Important information about the Camp Fire and Sing-Along!
I forgot to mention that the Elementary Camp Fire and Sing-Along is a Great Gathering and it does cost $5 as a donation to GRS. If you are interested in attending, please contact Heather Thomas - she is a LEW parent and graciously hosting this event :)

Replenishing our Library. If you happen to have any books appropriate for first-third graders, we are looking to replenish our library. Nonfiction books about animals, science, history, geography are wonderful are always in high demand. Poetry, picture books, and easy readers are also great to have on hand. This can be something that you can donate to us by June 14th, so we can pack it up or we can coordinate at the end of August when we're starting to work on our environments.Plant Care. If you would be willing to care for some large and/or small plants this summer, our community would greatly appreciate it.PHOTOS FROM THE WEEKMuseum Project PhotosAll the best and more,--Jessy Eaton FabelLower Elementary Guide"Our aim therefore is not merely to make the child understand, and still less to force him to memorize, but so to touch his imagination as to enthuse him to his inmost core." ~ Maria Montessori
