Bingo Night

FROM OUR PTO:  Our Bingo Night is scheduled for Friday, April 4.  As of the responses received by Monday afternoon, we have reached the maximum capacity permitted in the APR for the event and Bingo Night is now full.  We can no longer accept additional responses.  We apologize for the inconvenience and thank you for your understanding!

Wacky Wednesday

Tomorrow, March 19 is Wacky Wednesday.  Students earned the day in exchange for all the hearts received as part of our Fawn Hollow CARES program. The day is meant to be fun, BUT we are still in school.  No face paint or hair coloring!  Fawn Hollow School protocol will be followed.  If someone wears or comes in with something that may cause too many disruptions or issues, teachers do have the right to have the child put the item away.  Wacky must be school appropriate.  Thanks!

The Big Read

As I'm sure you may have heard by now, this year's Big Read selection is Masterpiece by Elise Broach.  The summary on the back of the book reads:

Marvin lives with his family under the kitchen sink in the Pompadays' apartment.  He is very much a beetle.  James lives with his family in New York City.  He is very much an eleven-year-old boy.  After James gets a pen-and-ink set for his  birthday, Marvin surprises him by creating an elaborate miniature drawing.  Then James ends up with all the credit, and is expected to do it again.  Before they know it, the unlikely friends are caught up in an art heist that could lead them to a long-lost drawing by Albrecht Durer.  Or course, James can't go through with the plan without Marvin's help.  But can a boy take a beetle to a museum and let him recreate a master work of art without anyone knowing about it?  Even more important, can he bring the beetle safely back home?

The following is a link to The Big Read's website which includes the reading calendar and podcasts of each chapter.  If your child is having difficulty reading or is just too tired, the podcast will read the chapter to your child.  This is also a great way for the entire family to follow along and take part in this fantastic story.

Hope you love this book as much as I do!!
