Dear 十大彩票平台 Community, Welcome to November. We have lots on the horizon for 十大彩票平台 families and students. Winter sports begin on November 13, the fall play, Tinkerbell opens on Thursday, November 16, our Seminar Day is scheduled on Friday, November 17, and Grandparents and Special Friends Day on Tuesday, November 21. Watch for details.
The changing of the seasons gives us time to reflect, and this morning, the English Department and senior students helped us do so by sharing some of their favorite fall-inspired poems. Ms. Wright shared Snowgeese by Mary Oliver, Ms. Miller shared Tanka by Sonya Sanchez, Elle Noecker read Emily Dickinson’s untitled poem known by its opening line “the name - of it - is Autumn, and Quinn Brinkworth closed the reading with Maya Angelou’s Late October. The final lines of this poem particularly struck me, and I hope each of you will take the time to read the poems or watch the Morning Meeting video from today. Thank you to the English department for keeping this tradition alive.

We all enjoyed our Halloween celebration, including this skit based on "Toy Story". |
