Morning Chats with Larry

Our Head of School’s door is always open to anyone in our community. Early one morning this week, Ezra E., one of our younger members stopped in for a talk. Wonder what kind of discussions they had in the early hours?

Valentines for Meals on Wheels 

For over 10 years, our Primary and K classes have created valentines for Meals on Wheels to distribute to their clients as a service project. This year over 1,000 pieces of art from the heart will be shared across Monroe County.

Heroic Storytelling

From Grade 7/8 English teacher, Tierney McKee:

My Grade 8 students are creating fairy tales using “The Hollow Woods” myriorama cards. They must employ an element from each of their selected cards, and their story must follow a heroic pattern.
