Satori Notes for February 27, 2009

If you want your child to attend the Satori Spring Break Camp from March 16 to March 20, 2009, please notify me as soon as possible and fill out a registration form.  Registration is due by Monday, March 2, and the $100 fee is due by Friday March 13.  We need at least 6 students to enroll in order to offer the camp.  We still have a couple of spaces available so let me know now so we can make decisions regarding the camp.

Monday, March 2, 2009, is the fourth scheduled Report Card Day.  That is your opportunity to receive information on your child’s most recent progress.  If you desire a conference, please schedule one with the teacher.  The next date for school wide parent conferences is April 20, 2002.

Tomorrow, Saturday, February 28, 2009, is our first parent work day for this semester.  We will work from 9:00 to 1:00.  Next Saturday, March 7, will also be a work day if you can not help tomorrow.  The jobs needed to be done are posted on the front office window.  They are listed by classroom and area of the school.  Do remember to sign off on what you complete so that you will get credit for your volunteer time.  Thanks in advance for you help.

Tuesday, March 3, 2009, the BBQ Committee will meet in the art room at 5:30 pm.  Please let me know by email or note if you have information to share but are not able to meet with us that day.  Our time is growing short and we need to set some deadlines for ourselves.  Remember, every parent should be signed up for a BBQ Sub-Committee.

The Parent Board meeting on Thursday, March 5, at 6:00 is a very important one. We will be making decisions about repairs to the roof and tuition. Please be sure to attend.

Satori News for February 23, 2009

Satori Mardi Gras Activities

Fifteen Satori students, parents, and friends decked out in Satori shirts walked in  the Children’s Parade on Sunday, February 22. The students made paper mache sun faces to carry with a sign:  “Satori Goes Solar”.   Zeke and Zella multi-tasked as they carried the Satori Elementary School Sign and threw beads to the many children and adults along the way.   Thanks to parents for walking and assisting.  Thanks to Stephanie for the great signs and suns!

During the Mardi Gras parade on Saturday. February 21  in front of Satori, our parents sold hot dogs, corn in a cup, chips, coke and water from the building entrance facing 25th Street.  We had a great volunteer crew of parents who did set up, sold, and cleaned up. There was a constant stream of customers who particularly liked the chili dogs!  Thanks to everyone for making the event fun and profitable.  Thanks also to those who loaned needed items.  We got in some good practice for the BBQ in May.  There are enough supplies left over to provide refreshments for the work day crews and for the student field day.

Spring Break Child Care Camp

Child care will be available during Spring Break, March 16-20, 2009, from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm at Satori for a minimum of  6 to a maximum of  8 students.  The fee per child for the care is $100 for the entire week which is to be paid to Satori by Friday, March 13.  The care provider will be Ms. Henriett Glant who has been substitute teaching here.

BBQ Apron Project

The BBQ apron contest is fast upon us.  Students have been asked to bring a rough sketch of their preliminary design to class on this Wednesday, February 25. During art class, students will discuss their work and then the designs will be sent home to be finished.  The final version must be completed and turned in by Wednesday, March 4th.  Judging will be done before the board meeting on March 5th.  Be sure your child puts his/her name on the back of their design.

Cylinder Gardening Project Needw Potting Soil

Our Cylinder Gardening project is under way.  Every student has his/her own garden cylinder and has planted the seeds. Now we are in need of additional potting soil for the children to add to the cylinders as the plants sprout.  Please place soil donations in the bottom of the gray storage unit by the entrance.
