Snow Families!
The Scholastic Book Fair starts this week. We have a great selection of books to choose from this fall and hope you can make it in to see us. Students will be visiting with their classes Tues. thru Thurs., and the book fair will also be open Mon., Wed. & Thurs. after school until 4pm. Then we will be open Fri. morning for last-minute shoppers from 8:30 to 11am.

If you can’t make it to the book fair, please visit the book fair online at:

Included with the flyer sent home last week was a baggie for our “All for Books Campaign.” Collect any loose change from home, put in the baggie and bring in to class. The class that raises the most money will get to wrap Dr. Groover up like a mummy!

Our Family Halloween Night is Tues., Oct. 25 from 6 to 8pm. Please join us for lots of spooky fun. You can shop at the book fair (in the media center), purchase delicious baked goods at our bake sale and play Halloween themed games in the gym.

Thank you!

A Very GOREY Family Day at
Cranbrook Art Museum on October 22

Please join us on Saturday, October 22, from 11am – 3pm, for A Very Gorey Family Day at Cranbrook Art Museum! All activities will celebrate the illustrations of Edward Gorey.

Our current exhibition, Unsettled: The Work of Edward Gorey features many of the artist’s famed publications, including elaborately-designed artists’ books and assorted Gorey ephemera and memorabilia.

Museum educators will be on hand to help create Gorey-inspired artwork, just in time for the Halloween season!
Peer through Tunnel Calamity, Edward Gorey’s accordion book, and create your own collapsible book.
Sketch characters and masks learning Gorey’s shading and hatching techniques.
Set the stage with your creations, like the foldout miniatures seen in Dracula: A Toy Theatre.
Hear and see Gorey’s books read aloud in our mini-projection room.
All ages are welcome and activities are free with Museum admission. Children 12 and under are always free.
