Grade 3

Dear Parents,

Recently John Evans spoke to Grade 7 about Haiti and his organization Hot Futbol, and they were inspired to begin a collection.

The Hot Futbol soccer drive is to help children in Haiti ages 7-13 play soccer. The 7th grade is asking for gently used soccer cleats, soccer socks, soccer balls, shinguards and t-shirts that could be sent to Haiti for these students. Students can drop these items off in boxes located in Ryan, Peterson, Oakes and Albright. The drive will continue through the month of November.

Thanks so much, 

Sarah Pitcher-Hoffman

All ages are welcome.

I always feel badly for people not lucky enough to work at a school on Halloween.  They miss the undeniable fun of reliving childhood’s silliness, fear, and fantasy.

Berkshire Country Day School students, parents, teachers, and staff truly know how to enjoy the day and you can enjoy a small selection of pictures by viewing this slideshow:

During the assembly this afternoon, the fifth grade class shared with everyone a video they worked on this fall.  To be sure, they are fierce!

In other news, varsity soccer players trounced the faculty this afternoon in the annual students vs. faculty soccer game (pictures in the slideshow above). Congrats to the victors and best of luck to the faculty in next year’s game!

Wishing everyone a safe, spooky, and silly Halloween.

Join us this Thursday as Visual Arts faculty and students lead guests through the studios to see finished artworks and works-in-progress! Observe live pottery wheel demonstrations by Upper School students and test out your skills with a drawing challenge. Read a giant book by the Kindergarten class and see if you can find gargoyles installed by 4th Grade in curious places around Furey Hall. Seasonal refreshments will be served!
