We have been busy! Last Friday, we prepared a meal of lasagna, salad, and brownies for Dr. Joe Collins, who makes and plays mountain dulcimers. A parent sent in a hammer dulcimer for comparison. We picked kale out of our garden, and since it had bolted, we used the flowers for centerpieces. Dr. Collins showed us how the dulcimer works, and we sang some American folk songs.
We also had a yard sale fundraiser on Saturday and cleared over $800! Thank you to all of you who donated and came out to support our school. It was great exposure in the community, since many people who came in had no idea there was a school there.
The students finished their art projects on a favorite artist. Now they are working on self-portrait tiles that will be put onto a keepsake board and hung in the school to commemorate our first year together. Can you believe it's almost over?!
We are still enrolling in grades K-9 for the 2012-2013 school year. If you or someone you know is interested, call or come by!
