If your student wants to be in The Variety Show, they still can register by filling out the permission slip and being at our first rehearsal from 3:15-4:15PM this Monday April 15 after school in the MPR.  We will have extra permission slips at rehearsal. 

If your 5th or 6th grader is interested in leadership, filming, editing, lighting or backstage crew, then they can be part of our production team and back stage crew.  Then fill out the permission slip at rehearsals. 

We are also looking for adult volunteers to help put on the show.  From filming, lighting, running our spotlight, managing student holding or helping with ticket sells, concessions, or helping with makeup and hair. 

Video submission need to be two (2) minutes or less, appropriate material for elementary school, and sent on a flash drive.  Video submissions can be a short film you made at home a cooking tutorial, or a special skill or talent you can't show on stage. 

Art submissions can be a video of your student doing art or a tutorial sent in a video on a flash drive two (2) minutes or less.  Your student can have the art displayed on the projector screen and be on stage with a mic to speak about the piece.  Or you can submit a 30 second video of the art with the name of the artist the name of piece and a description. 

If your student’s talent is something that they are able to do on stage then we would want them to participate on stage with the rest of our cast.

If you or your student would like to be involved in anyway we look forward to seeing you Monday in the MPR after school at 3:15-4:15PM.

All cast, crew and volunteers in the variety show part will be videotaped and pictures will be taken to be used for PTA.

If your student needs accommodations to be able to be part of the show our goal is to make the variety show accessible to all students. If you have any questions about how your student can be involved, you can call or text.  Rose Carradine McGee (661-644-7779)

Our theme this year is:  "Best Teachers & Staff in the WHOLE WORLD!" 

We greatly appreciate your participation and look forward to working with all of you to create a fun and memorable appreciation week for our Teachers and Staff.

Following tradition, we will be Door Decorating on Monday, April 29, starting at 7:30am!

Help us transform our campus into "World Travel Destinations".  Your door design can be your dream vacation destination or your Teacher's!  We recommend creating a design that can arrive to school on Monday, April 29, mostly pre-assembled, and having a 2-person team definitely makes the installation easier! Signs must be hung on doors with painter's tape. 

Now is a great time to start brainstorming your design and reaching out for other volunteers and donations from your class.  If you have any questions, please reach out to your Room Parent.  If you don’t have a Room Parent – or don’t know how to get in touch with them – please contact the Teacher Appreciation Week Co-Chairpersons:  

• Kim Sperling (sperlingjbk@yahoo.com) and 
• Nicole Carruth (Nicole.carruth1@gmail.com

Or you can sign up online at https://www.signupgenius.com/go/5080549ABA82AA3FB6-48957991-world.

Kim and Nicole are also working on other ways to spoil our teachers – from treats and goodies in the break room to a catered lunch, special breakfast, and more.  If you have ideas (or contacts for donations), please reach out to Kim and/or Nicole right away!

The SSPTA will be hosting our Second Annual Multicultural Fair on Friday, March 22:

• During the school day – for students only (and table/booth volunteers).
• In the evening, 5-7pm, in the MPR – for ALL.  Please plan to join us!

We have nine countries being represented this year:  Afghanistan, Argentina, Armenia, Bangladesh, India, Japan, Mexico, Peru, and Philippines.

During the school day, students will be able to visit the fair, visiting with representatives of the various countries/cultures, either with their class and teacher or on their own during their recess time.  

We have also added an evening portion to the event this year so students can bring you back to share in what they’ve learned.  (This was highly requested by students last year who felt they didn’t have enough time during the day to spend with all the different countries!  And we have even MORE countries this year…so save the date!)  The evening event will include information and activities at each country table as well as cultural performances.

If you would like to host a table or perform at the evening portion of this event next year, please contact the Chairperson, Daynabelle Anderson, at daynabelle@gmail.com.  She will make sure that you are contacted.  We would love to have you join us!).
