Hi Everyone,

This week we have a lot of wonderful things going on. We have been reminding students of schedule changes. We are encouraging them to front load a bit of extra FLVS work this weekend (Oct 23-24) because we have some great community building things happening this week.

Here is this week's update:

Things to ask your student about:

• High School: Tell me about the book you are reading. Share with me your first two literature responses that you wrote on your blog.
  

• Middle School: What part of the process are you working on this week for your PBL?
  

• Elementary: Tell me about Comic Life.
  

PBL update:

• Presentation next week High School hybrid car project on Wednesday at 8:35am.

Rock and Roll Academy Update:

• Mr. Mark is coming to town this week on Friday. He will be facilitating a great day of music for the students.

• Stay tuned for a new concert date. We had to change the 11/14 date because of schedule conflicts.
  

Community Support Please:

• It is now time for us to pull together and make our scarecrOH fundraiser and bake sale a success. Please send in the following things to help out: costumes (new or used), things to decorate the scarecrOHs with, newspaper to stuff the scarecrOHs. We also need people to send in two baked goods as well as work the bake sale on Saturday.
  

Things we need:

• We have a request from the students for chex mix as a snack.
  

• Cleaning supplies: we would love to get two more brooms and dust pans. We would also love two more swiffer wet mops. These things will allow for us to clean all areas of the school more efficiently.

• Dish towels: we would love about 3-4 for the kitchen.
  

Fundraising meetings update:

• ScarecrOH sales have been good so far. We will be working on building scarecrOHs on Thursday from 1:30-3:30pm.

Strep throat warning:

• We wanted to let you know that we have had two students come down with strep throat in the past two weeks.
  

Attitudes of gratitude:

• Again an attitude of gratitude goes out to Slyvia Alf for taking the time to do revision round #2 with the HS hybrid car papers. A HUGE attitude of gratitude goes out to Paige for her hard work on the Costa Rica trip. She found a trip that meets our needs both as a service learning community experience and financially. Thank you to the Syed family for the snacks from Sam's. Thank you Lettye for the awesome pizza celebration on Friday!
