Parents,
This is an update on our Ellis Island event.
On Wednesday, October 31st at 8:45 students will be participating in an immigration activity that will simulate a visit to Ellis Island of long ago. Each student has been researching a country as part of this project. If students would like to bring in food from their country they may. It is not required. Please send in small bite-size pieces. We have no way of heating things up, so please plan accordingly. Students are also expected to dress as an immigrant. We do have some clothing at school they may borrow. Each child should have a basket or sack of personal belongings that they bring with them from the old country. These items had to be very limited because of space. Consequently, the items that were brought were very meaningful or essential to them. All parents are invited to the Parade of Immigrants at 8:45 on the 31st of October.Hope to see you then.
Mrs. Walsh
