Family Fun Night

We will have our first Family Fun Night on September 2nd from 5-7pm. There will be several events going on that night, so we hope you will come out and join us.



Events include
  • Book Fair

  • Visiting author, C. C. Payne, will be here to read to children and sign books at the Book Fair. She will be here sharing her books that day during school to grades 2-6. She is the author of Something to Sign About.

  • Preschool through 2nd grade will have "safari" activities with Curious George visiting too.

  • Parents and students of 3rd-6th grade will have the opportunity to hear from Hope Harbor. with an Internet safety program: NetSmartz.org. This is an interactive, educational safety resource from the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children that uses age-appropriate activities to teach children how to stay safer on the Internet.
    The program will be offered at two different times so you can enjoy the other activities going on that night. The two times for you to attend will be at 5:10 or 6:10. The program will last approximately 45 minutes. We feel that students need to be aware of the dangers on the Internet and have the savvy to know what to do when they encounter them. If you have any questions please call Mrs. Winchester at 542-4139.

  • There will also be math activities for grades K-3.

  • Middle school students are welcome to come work in the computer lab for open lab time on Study Island, Math Whizz, etc.

Light refreshments are also provided for those attending the family night. There is also a volleyball game that night, but separate admission is required to attend. We hope you'll come out to family night and catch a volleyball game too.
