Calvert Toy Drive

 

As a reminder, this week is Calvert’s annual Community Outreach Toy Drive. We will be collecting new and gently used toys to donate to our outreach partners, including the Hampden Family Center, Paul's Place, and some other local organizations that serve the less fortunate. If you would like to participate in this all school drive, please send in a donation this week. Gifts should be unwrapped. Donation boxes will be located in the Luetkemeyer Lobby for Lower School students, and in the Lower Lobby outside the Black Box Theater for Middle School students. 

Tall Tale Festival

 

 

 

 

 

Recently, students dressed up as their favorite Tall Tale character for our "Tall Tale Festival" in reading group.  Many different characters were represented, including Pecos Bill, Slue-Foot-Sue, John Henry, Davy Crockett, Johnny Appleseed, Stormalong, and Paul Bunyan.  Each student prepared and acted out a scene featuring their chosen character.  In addition, the students brought in tasty treats for their classmates.  What an exciting and delicious day!

A Very 10-2 Halloween...

The 10-2 boys dressed in many creative costumes for this year's Halloween parade.  The boys enjoyed candy corn, Rice Krispies treats, cupcakes, and a variety of other tasty goodies during our Halloween party with 10-1.  Many thanks to everyone who sent in treats and supplies!
