Note From Mr. Mehaffey:

Team Discovery 4th Grade and all 5th Grade Beginning Band Students;

I am sorry to let you know, that the concert for my 4th grade recorder class, and the Beginning Band, is postponed for tonight. I would like to reschedule for next Tuesday, January 19, with the kids coming to the band room and cafeteria at 6pm, and the concert starting at 6:30 pm.

I have had a bad cold, since Christmas, which I have found really hard to shake, and it is now moving into my lungs, and I need to shake this off with a few days at home, without talking and coughing so much. I especially apologize to the Beginning Band about this, where I have been out a few days, and after school, since vacation, with little or no notice. It stinks for me too.

Thank you for understanding, and there will be no lessons for Beginning Band for the end of this week, and could everyone please bring their instrument to school next Tuesday morning, the day after the long weekend, and we will have a rehearsal during the day. Please keep your solos in shape over the week and weekend, and I will see you on Tuesday.

Frank Mehaffey

City School Parents, Guardians & Caretakers:
You are your childrens’ first and most important teachers. In an effort to assist you in that very critical role, City School would like to invite you to attend a program on “Parenting Challenges Posed by Technology.” This topic is one raised by parents in a survey conducted during our Fall Open House. That same survey indicated an evening time would be most convenient and that child care would be helpful.
Taking these requests into account, the program will be offered on Thursday, January 21st from 6 to 7 PM in the City School Library. Our school counselors, Vicki Nelson and Deb McCarthy, will lead the program.
Refreshments and child care will be provided. Please spread the word. We hope to build up our contact list so that we can provide you with information on important parenting topics as well as announce other programs in the future.
Please contact me if you have questions or to let me know if you will have child care needs on that night (527-0565 X3201 or dennys@sacsvt.org.)
Thanks and see you on the 21st.
