Greetings!
Congratulations to Module 2 Merit and Honor Roll recipients. I'll email the complete list of students tomorrow.
This week Upper School enjoyed a visit from Mary Anderson - a woman who grew up in our building when it was the Foushee home. We enjoyed a slide show of many family events that took place on our grounds including the wedding of her parents that was held in front of the mantle in the Junior MAPP room! We look forward to Mary's future visits with both Lower School and Upper School students.
Our soccer team will wrap up their season this week with practices on Monday and Wednesday and tournament games to be played Thursday, Friday and/or Saturday (two of the three days). Our game days and times will be scheduled and announced after all of the other league teams finish their games this week....stay tuned.
On Tuesday I will be traveling to Wilmington with a group of our high school students for a tour and information session at UNC-Wilmington. I hope to schedule a few more trips to NC colleges over the course of the year. I won't be checking email for most of the day so if a need arises please relay a message via Wendy.
It is hard to believe that Friday is mid-semester. Mid-semester Grades and Warnings will be mailed home the following week.
Academic Fair update - Upper School students have a final outline and one written section of their paper (other than the Introduction or Conclusion) due tomorrow (Monday). Good News - we have reserved the Lyon Park recreation center (right off of Lakewood Avenue) for the Academic Fair and Thanksgiving Feast. Due to limited kitchen facilities most of the meal will be catered...details to follow.
Please note that the whole school trip to the Flamenco ballet that had been scheduled for this week has been canceled by the performers.
Have a great week.
