Your children participated in an incredible Cub Gathering this past Friday. Local author Michael Rosen allowed the entire school to experience new book he’s publishing through a noisy and fun group read.
Students were awarded Learner Profile certificates and we learned that more than 900 tickets were turned in to our office indicating the number of times our students were caught in the act of demonstrating the Cub Code! This was followed by our first Cub Code Raffle.
Mr. Pinciotti and Mr. Manchester also introduced to an incredible art project/process for our entire school. Parents will be hearing about it as we progress this semester, and you’ll be seeing the installation during Art Hop on May 9th. You might ask your child about the following lyrics they’ve been learning:
WE ARE CASSINGHAM
When final bells have rung
And graded days are done
Consider all the lessons that endure
We've learned to think and care
We've learned to be and share
Making us the best that we can be
