NEW INFORMATION
 
Crossing Guard Collection – If you would like contribute to the Crossing Guards Gift please drop off your donation in the box marked “Crossing Guards” in the front office at school.  If you would like your name listed on the cards please make sure to add your name on your envelope.  No checks please, as the money is going directly to the crossing guards. Please drop off your contribution by the end of school on Wednesday, December 19th. Any questions, please contact Kelly Henrikson at kel624@gmail.com
 
Reflections – We are so proud of our Pierce Downer students.  We had 19 entries in this year’s PTA Reflections contest, “Within Reach”.  The entries are an amazing display of our school’s creativity and talent.  Here are our participants:

  • Visual Arts:  K-2nd grade: Greyson Miller, Cassidy Moss, and Priya Fisher; 3rd-5th grade: Ingrid Dombrowski, Micah Principe, Meili Fleener, Avery Miller and Mackenzie Wells; 6th grade: Cara Fleming
  • Film Production:  3rd– 5th grade: Sajan Komanduri and Hannah Klemz; 6th grade: Rajan Fisher
  • Photography:   3rd– 5th grade: Gabe Deaton; 6th grade: Sarah Lampsa and Malini Fisher
  • Dance:  6th grade: Malini Fisher
  • Literature:  K- 2nd grade: Arya Komanduri
  • Music Composition:  3rd-5th grade: Maddie Fleener; 6th grade: Pallavi Fisher

Thank you to all of our participants.  They have recently been judged at Pierce Downer, and then many will proceed to compete at the District level. Those selected will be honored this Wednesday night at a ceremony at Herrick Middle School, with our very own Mrs. Clavenna presenting.  All participants have earned themselves a coupon for a free scoop of ice cream from Everyday’s A Sundae that they will receive in the next couple of weeks.  Great work, students!
