The Cougar Roar - Spring 2014

Art Fun Day

The PTA hosted our final Art in the Classroom project with “Art Fun Day”.  Teachers brought their class to the multipurpose room where the were able to choose from 5 projects, working with a variety of art mediums:

• Monet Water Lilies with tissue paper and pastels
• Watercolor with salt and plastic wrap
• Recycled Material “Litter” Bugs
• Clay Shaping
• Van Gogh’s Sunflowers with a variety of materials

Some students enjoyed it so much they returned on their recess to try a different project.  

Celebrating our Teachers and Staff!

We have a fun filled week planned for our Teachers and Staff.  They started the week with a surprise makeover of the Staff Lounge. The favorites of the remodel were the cougar trash can (thanks David Phillips) and the Keurig machine.

May 5th - 9th Staff Appreciation Week and National Teacher Day

The PTA is celebrating Staff Appreciation Week May 5^th – 9^th.  We appreciate all that our teachers and staff do for our children and community.  You can support your student in expressing their thanks to their teacher with a note or drawing. And we especially remember them on National Teacher Day, Tuesday, May 6^th.  

And encourage your child to get creative on Crazy Dress Up / Come as Your Favorite Teacher Day, Friday, May 9^th. We look forward to a fun week!
