Lower School Families, 

While our week together was short, it was overflowing with community and joy, celebrating Easter Egg Hunts & Parties and Grandparents & Special Friends Day!

Thank You!

• Easter Celebration Volunteers: Enormous thanks to the Parents’ Guild, especially Lower School Parents’ Guild Coordinators Caroline Martin and Margaret Pernici! It was an honor to partner with the Parents’ Guild to celebrate Easter, community style! Special thanks also to Abide Events for the beautiful Easter Bunny picture backdrop, Homeroom Parent Leads for your support with the egg hunts & parties, and countless parent volunteers for event set up.
• Grandparents & Special Friends Day Volunteers: Thank you, Anya Glusman & Carolyn Borne, Team Volunteer Leaders for Grandparents & Special Friends Day, and to all the parent volunteers who helped guide our 500+ special guests this morning!

Our theme this week was reverence. Click here to see Mrs. Lofland’s Toolbox Tuesday lesson.

In the QUEST Center this week, Early Childhood students balanced Easter eggs on paper tubes and attached Easter egg halves using Play-Doh to make a tall tower. 2nd graders wove Peruvian textiles as part of their study of South America and Spanish culture. 5th graders continued to build and code a variety of things, such as an elephant and a submarine, using the LEGO Spike Essentials kits in Coding & Robotics Enrichment.
