Planning Meeting

Octoberfest is a fun community event for the school. We set up a carnival in the cafeteria on Thursday. Friday, all the students take turns coming into the cafeteria to play games or do crafts. Just before lunch, there is a parade in the yard with dancing(!) and the older kids come to the cafeteria in the afternoon.
Please bring your ideas about other fun activities you think we can organize. If you can’t attend the planning meeting, please email or phone Kari with your ideas. Her contact information is in the bright yellow Involvement Guide you received at the beginning of the year.
We usually send a volunteer and donation form home in the Wednesday envelope and also online in an email. Then we make a list of things to do. If you are able to help coordinate the task lists or volunteers, please let Kari know.
Sunnyside School tours will be on Thursdays at 9am, starting on October 6. You will be able to visit all three classrooms, the library, cafeteria and yard and some of the upper grade classrooms. Tours are lead by parents and you have the opportunity to meet with the principal after each tour. These tours are a good opportunity to experience the classrooms and the style of the teachers.
There will also be two tours for prospective parents on Satruday, October 17 and Saturday, November 14 at 10am. The tour will start in the library include the opportunity to meet current Kindergarten parents and some school staff. You will have the opportunity to meet with the principal. These tours are a good opportunity to meet more Sunnyside families and talk for a little longer than the Tuesday tour.
Well-behaved prospective students and their siblings are welcome on the tours. Call 469-4747 to reserve a space.
