Is it SPRING yet?

As I write this, another storm is brewing on the east coast. Will NYC schools have off? We'll see!

A big thanks to everyone who supported our amazing Captstone Project last month. It was a HUGE success and we raised over $800 so far to donate to Water for South Sudan - Salva Dut's organization which builds wells in Sudanese villages.

This month, we're gearing up for our state exam. We still have a few days to go before we get to Spring Break, but then the state exam is a mere THREE DAYS after we get back from Spring Break! The year is FLYING BY!

We also want to thank Ms. Jesslyn and Ms. Lauren for their wonderful field trip to Symphony Space in March. We experienced samples from numerous Latin American cultures such as Brazil, Puerto Rico, and Mexico!

Watch this space for information concerning our NEXT capstone project - a career night! Stay tuned for details.

Have a great Spring Break!
