Foreign Language Lunch!

Hola! Bonjour!

Last Monday the eighth grade French and Spanish classes went out to lunch! Señora Velez and Mr. Perkins took the students to Panchos in Pittsfield for authentic Mexican cuisine. Madame Barlow and Ms. Rossie brought the French students to Patisserie Lenox in Great Barrington to experience French cafe food.

We had a blast and could not be more impressed with the maturity and talent of these fine foreign language students! Muchas gracias and merci beaucoup to everyone who helped organize our excursions!

The ninth grade Spanish and French classes will also be dining out next Tuesday April 7th. Bon appétit!

Fifth Grade Book Drive

Time for the annual Fifth Grade Book Drive!

In conjunction with Reader-to-Reader, a Springfield-based non-profit organization, the Fifth Grade is collecting books!

Reader-to-Reader serves children in rural and underserved communities in the US and around the world. We are excited to continue this community service project in 2015! Last year, Fifth Grade collected several hundred books for this important cause.

Please bring your gently used children’s books (through Grade 9) to the Fifth Grade homeroom in the next two weeks. No textbooks, magazines, videos or reference materials, please!

Thanks for your support!
