Field Trip Rescheduled

Parents,

Due to weather, we are not able to go to St. Marks today as planned. We have rescheduled the field trip for next Tuesday, May 6th. If you were signed up to chaperone, but can no longer make it, please let Mrs. Owen know ASAP. If you have any questions, please email me at owenc2@leonschools.net.

Field Trip Tomorrow

Parents,

We are monitoring the weather closely to determine whether or not we will be able to go to St. Marks tomorrow. Please still plan to send your child dressed for the field trip (with a change of clothes, as we will be wading out in the Apalachee Bay if we attend) and a packed lunch. 

If the weather is bad, we will reschedule the field trip. Dr. Small and I will make a final decision tomorrow morning. I will notify you via email and text message first thing.

If you have not yet signed up for our text alerts, please be sure to do so, as I will be using this communication method tomorrow in case you are unable to get to your email before 9:30. Just text @greenste to (352) 449-1340.

Comcast Cares Day

We had a great turn-out for our Comcast Cares Day. Our school looks beautiful! Some projects we completed were painting the Guidance Hallway and Conference Room, putting down new mulch on the Intermediate and Primary Playgrounds, yard trash clean-up, organizing the PE closet and Textbook Room, and finally, lots of gardening projects. If you haven't seen the front of the school, it looks amazing with all the new flowers.

Thank you to all the students and parents who came out on Saturday to help. It was a great community service opportunity, and I think our students really learned a lot from it!

Sustainable Tallahassee

At our April 8th meeting, Daniel Parker from Sustainable Tallahassee visited our club to continue our education on recycling and its importance. Sustainable Tallahassee is a local organization that works to bring awareness to the community about "going green", as well as collaborates with city and county officials on ways our city can be environmentally friendly.

Here are some pictures from his visit:
