Hello neighbors!
Thank you to everyone who supported our students during Read-A-Thon. It was so much fun seeing everyone compete over reading minutes, enjoy local author talks, decorate their lockers to look like their favorite books, and dress up as their favorite book character. Also, thank you for your donations to the soccer goal fund. With your help the Soccer Coalition was able to meet its fundraising goal! Keep your eyes on the SES field—soon to be featuring two new soccer goals!
Join us for our Home-Grown Musical, Teleported!
Teleported, a musical written by our own Mo Phillips with the help of our students, will be performed on Friday, March 14 at 6 p.m. and Saturday, March 15th at 3 p.m. and 6 p.m. The students had a lot of fun putting this show together and it should be highly enjoyable to watch.
The year is 1984. Some teenage friends in NYC are having a slumber party when three of them get sucked into the T.V.! As their friend (and her dog) tries to free them, the teens get tossed from T.V. show to T.V. show, meeting all kinds of crazy characters. Will they get back to reality? Join us to find out. To buy tickets, go to our Facebook page (SES PTSA) or our Instagram profile (@ses_ptsa) and click on the link in any of our Teleported posts. Come support our young thespians!
Donations Needed for SES’s Annual Gala
Each spring, the PTSA hosts a gala at which we auction off a wide variety of exciting items and experiences. This is a very fun event attended by a wide variety of SES families and supporters. Right now, we are collecting prizes for the auction. If you have something you would be willing to donate, we would love to hear from you. Auction prizes can be anything – a night out at a local restaurant, a private weekend at your vacation property, tickets to a local show, beautiful handcrafted jewelry, pottery, or other household items. This can be a great way to promote your business and to support a local school. If you are interested in donating an auction prize, please contact [email protected].
Beads Needed for SES’s Upcoming Earth Day Celebration
SES, Making Earth Cool, and Extinction Rebellion are joining together to host an Earth Day celebration on SES’s campus on Saturday, April 26th. SES is collecting beads for a bracelet-making table in honor of Bob Sallinger, an important activist and community member who recently passed away. If you have beads you would be willing to donate, please contact [email protected].
We are planning a “Succession of the Species” parade, where participants can dress as plants or animals, as well as marching bands, face painting, giant puppets, and more! More details will be in the April newsletter.
