Weekly Updates, Monday, 22 January, 2024

 Dear colleagues,

This week marks the beginning of an extraordinary art and music extravaganza, showcasing the creative talents and musical spirit of our fourth and fifth graders. As highlighted in Tuesday's morning briefing, we are thrilled to welcome Service Learning expert Cathy Berger Kaye to CA. She will be conducting a parent workshop on Wednesday morning and a faculty workshop during our Wednesday learning session. This presents a fantastic opportunity for us all to be inspired, engage deeply, and become motivated about the potential of service learning.


The week culminates with the much-anticipated 4-5 music concert. Parents and students from grades 1-3 will form our esteemed audience. Let's encourage our students to participate in the concert with both enthusiasm and respect, creating a memorable experience for everyone.


Finally, as Jon mentioned in his message, don't forget to mark your calendars for the Dragon Lunar New Year Party on February 2nd, right here on campus. This is an exciting chance to connect with parents and colleagues in a relaxed setting and celebrate the vibrant CA community.


Warm regards,

Erin, Trevor, and Heikki
