Important Global Studies Information about Cuisine Day
¡Hola!
We are continuing to have a great time learning Spanish while singing, dancing, collaborating, creating and playing in Global Studies!
Between May 6th and May 24th, the students will have an opportunity to sample roasted plantain chips during one of their Global Studies classes. The ingredients in the chips are plantains, sunflower oil, and salt. Pictures and additional information about the product can be found below. If you do not want your child to sample the plantain chips, please complete the Participation OPT-OUT form and respond by May 3, 2019.
¡Gracias!

Shoe Donation
Dear parents,
On Friday, May 10th, Vani Sharma, the current National American Miss Pre-teen Indiana will be visiting with the 1st grade classes. She is a 7th grader at Fishers Jr High School and will be speaking with us about community service and empowering kids. One of her roles is as an ambassador for Changing Footprints. This organization collects used shoes and repurposes them either to those in need or by shredding them and using the materials for other purposes. We will be collecting used shoes to donate to Changing Footprints all next week. Feel free to send in any you may have at any time during the week.
Thank you so much for any support you can give to this great cause!
