What a great week here at Dale Street! It was finally a five day week and we made the best of it by filling the fifth day with more amazing things! Take a minute to scroll through and to check out the sights from this week.
Congratulations to the students who were selected to serve on this year's Student Advisory Council as well as our Student Advisory Council alternates. Thank you to all the boys and girls who submitted a letter of interest. Although some students may not have been selected to serve on this year's council, we hope they will be active leaders bringing about creative ideas in their classrooms.
Today in Mrs. Lowerre's fifth grade classroom students worked in teams and acted as archaeologists. Students dug to locate artifacts that may have been used by the ancient Mayan civilization. Total engagement and wonderful learning.

Special thanks to all of the Dale Street parents who have volunteered to be room parents this year. The annual Room Parent Tea took place yesterday and we are lucky to have such dedicated parents!
Dale Street teachers took time this week to participate in hands-on science professional development. Grade 4 and 5 teachers investigated ways to integrate engineering ideas into our science curriculum. The collaborative time together helped model our core value of Continuous Growth.

For your child's safety, please have your child arrive at school after 8:10 am. There will be no supervision before that time.
Enjoy your weekend and we look forward to seeing the kids back on Monday!
