The Brickton Weekly, May 10, 2013

Art Expo, Tomorrow!
Saturday, May 11th from 10:00am – 12:00pm, we will host the annual Art Expo with works by each student on display in the Great Room.  At 11:00am, we will have a dedication ceremony to honor Judy Beyer and Debbie Kelley.  We hope you can join us for this important and exciting event. 

Band/Chorale Concert
The students in band and Upper Elementary chorus performed a concert last night to rousing applause from parents and guests.  The band selections began with the Star Spangled Banner and featured marches, overtures, and a special selection by the Middle School band, Chatterbox.  The chorale arrangements featured acapella songs in Spanish and Nigerian , Firework by Katy Perry, and many soloists.  Congratulations to the students and Kathy Hummel, our Music Instructor,  and Beth Peachey, our pianist, on a wonderful performance.
Volunteer Spotlight
We would like to extend a grateful “Thank You” to Mhmoud Jaber, father of Children’s House student Rafiq, for donating new soccer balls to the playground.  The students are very grateful and are putting them to good use.    
Fundraising Reminder
This is the last call for Labels for Education this year. Please turn them in by May 23rd.  Brickton receives double points for all the labels turned.  The points can be used for exciting supplemental materials like sports equipment, art supplies, and technology. 
Extracurricular Performances
The Kinderdance year-end performance will be on May 29th.  The first show is at 3:30 and the second show is at 4:15.  If you child is one of the dancers, this is a great opportunity to come see all they have learned. 
The Runaway Circus year-end performance will be June 3rd at 3:15.  We hope you can stop by and see your budding clowns and acrobats perform the fun and entertaining tricks they have been working so hard to learn.
