Back From the Long Winter's Nap!

Can you believe the year is almost half over!

The 7th grade has been super busy with the winter show. As one teacher mentioned, it was the "best show in 10 years!" 

Ms. Jesslyn and Ms. Lauren took on the daunting task of turning the Bronx High School of Science stage into a winter wonderland! The performances were stellar, the costumes were brilliant, even the backdrops were professional! 

And we also have to thank our administration, Ms. Sanchez and Mr. McCoy for supporting the dance team. In addition, the whole production owes a TON of gratitude to the non-instructional staff: 
Mr. Stan, Ms. Jamila, Ms. Sophia, Ms. Ashley, Ms. Liz. The show would not have gotten anywhere without these amazing people. 

The show was a labor of love and A LOT of hard work. Long evenings rehearsing, day after day in class. But the proof was on the stage that night! 

Added to the bottom of this post is the "making of" video showing the hard work the students and staff put into the show. (Not to mention the fun that was had along the way!)

Captstone Time!

Can you hear that? The seventh grade is all a buzz of excitement for our Capstone Project! They are busy polishing their character diaries... finishing their art work... formatting their presentations... perfecting their dance moves... all for the idea of helping the people of Southern Sudan. Change for South Sudan is our fundraiser kickoff. We will be raising as much as we can to possibly build a well for a village in South Sudan. The inspiration for this comes from our reading the book A Long Walk to Wate r by Linda Sue Park. In the book, the main character Salva Dut has to survive the brutal Sudanese Civil War. He does and manages to make it to the USA - where he starts an organization to build wells in Sudan. Our dream goal - to raise the $15,000 to sponsor the building of a well! Our February event will kickoff that fundraiser. Students will be creating works of art with the help of Ms. Martin. Some students will be performing a dance number with the help of Ms. Jessalyn a...
