What to do when it snows and snows?

by Sheri Buttarazzi on February 8, 2010

These snowy days present a perfect opportunity for parents to work with our Stoneleigh students on their Gold Blue and Creative, Too submissions.    All students are invited to submit a song, poem, story or drawing. Submissions for GBCT will be accepted until February 26th.      Submission forms and directions are available at our Gold and Blue and Creative, Too webpage.

Attention Fifth Graders! Don’t forget about our cover contest for the next GBCT publication.

SCIENCE FAIR! Now is the time for students to select a science fair topic.  Remember, the best projects involve finding an answer to a question about something that interests your child.   The questions that can be asked and answered using scientific method are typically those that begin with who, what, where, why, when or how.   The topic should be observed, data tracked and the outcome measured.     Approval forms for your student’s science project must be returned to homeroom teachers no later than  February 23rd.  For more information and registration form, visit our school’s parent webpage.

The Gift of Reading

by Sheri Buttarazzi on January 25, 2010

The PTA sponsored Book Fair is coming to Stoneleigh!
February 1 – February 5

Children will be able to visit the Book Fair during their normally scheduled library time.

NEW THIS YEARFAMILY BOOK FAIR HOURS! You are welcome to bring your family to the Book Fair on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday (Feb 2-4) from 3:30 -7:00 p.m.

The Book Fair provides a great opportunity for you to help your children find the books they want to read. To keep the momentum going, we’ve created a top 5 list of reasons you don’t want to miss the Book Fair:

1.  You can shop from hundreds of quality books in every price range, interest, and reading level.
2.  You’ll help our school earn books and funds for classrooms and libraries.
3.  You’ll connect with your child’s school reading and literacy initiatives.
4.  You’ll find exclusive, more affordable editions of many of the most popular books sold in retail stores.
5.  And best of all, you and your child will have fun choosing books together.

So don’t miss out – Be sure to visit our Book Fair!
