Project Night
Wednesday, January 11
All K-5 students will present their science projects during our Open House annual Project Night on Wednesday, January 11th from 5-7 PM.
During this Open House time, students will receive a short checklist to complete during Project Night, which should only take 20 to 30 minutes. Once this is complete, students and families are free to leave. Students should try to arrive sometime before 6:30pm so that they can complete their checklists before 7:00pm. We ask that all students be dressed in their school uniforms.
Students can bring their projects during morning drop-off to deliver to classrooms. Parents will not be allowed to deliver projects to the classrooms. Please reach out to your classroom teacher with any questions.
This is a wonderful event where are students and families come together as a community to share the knowledge they have gained about the wonders of the human body!
