We had some very special visitors from Target at Skyline Mall today! They received the letter that one of our students wrote during our persuasive writing unit and decided to donate a huge box full of amazing art supplies, bird houses, and brightly colored dry-erase markers! Our jaws dropped to the ground when we saw all the cool stuff they brought! Thank you, Helen and Evelin from Target!

Please check out the updates on the Art Gallery page of this website. One of our resident artists, D.E., has submitted an ink on paper drawing of Mr. Fox as a vampire! Yikes!

A calavera (Spanish for “skull”) is a representation of a human skull made from either sugar or clay, which is used in the Mexican celebration of the Day of the Dead. This year Day of the Dead is observed on November 1 – 2.

Please visit The Smithsonian’s Virtual Museum to learn more about Day of the Dead.
