Hi Folks,

This past week, many students have started to focus on their Africa research projects.  We have a lot of people interested in many different aspects of Africa.  We have research happening on the many different landscapes, cultures, and art from the continent.  Remember to join us for our Early Bird Event on Friday, January 27 at 9:00 am, to see everyone's hard work.

A highlight this week was seeing the students having a great time getting a chance to drum together and learn new songs from our visitors from Ghana.  All students also got some extra time to practiced the songs from next month's "Odysseus" play.

The teachers are also spent part of the week wrapping up assessments for students for the winter progress reports.  Final progress reports will be delivered by the end of the month.  Remember to sign-up Bloomz, if you haven't already, for a parent/teacher conference time for February 2 and 3.

Have a good 3 day weekend,

Ben, Mary, & Ali
