Boo Bash - This Friday!

Boo Bash

The Boo Bash is a Halloween festival, parade and dance-a-thon scheduled at the school on Friday evening, October 30th. Parade starts around 5:30 p.m.

The Boo Bash kicks off with a parade of children masquerading in costumes and marching outside around the school, followed by fun Halloween activities, craft making, dinner and treats and culminating in a wild D.J. rock'n dance-a-thon.

Picture Day is Friday!

Our class pictures will be taken this Friday, October 23rd, in the MMR. Forms went home with students about two weeks ago. If you need more forms, please let us know immediately. Otherwise, practice your smile!

The Mannahatta Project

What was Manhattan like 400 years ago when Henry Hudson gazed upon it on his exploration?

View the Mannahatta Project map - a map that shows what Manhattan probably looked like back than. It was created using 3-D modeling by scientists based on the geography and landscape of our city.

Visit the Mannahatta project.
