February 20, 2020 By lphelan Leave a Comment

C.P. Smith’s Production of Frozen Jr. Was Fantastic!

Our annual school play was a smashing success featuring great performances and teamwork exhibited by all cast, crew and chorus members. In all over 70 students participated in the production of Frozen Jr. presented in partnership with the Very Merry Theatre Company. C.P. Smith students hard work and dedicated preparation paid off as Arizona Huynh, Alexandra Crafts, Hannah Harris, Moya Thayer, Annie Boutin, Celeste Hines, Isaac Aubin, Carlos Vanegas, Riley Maynard and many others provided fantastic performances! Director Don Wright and a truly committed group of family volunteers, Very Merry staff and musicians helped our students put on a first rate play on the big stage at Hunt Middle School. Special thanks go to Mrs. Beth Bahrenburg, Production Manager, Mrs. Nikki Boutin, Choreographer, and Mrs. Christine Harris, Costume Director and the many other volunteers who made this wonderful experience possible for our students.

Mrs. Weishaar’s Class Leading Plastic Recycling Efforts

January 23, 2018 By lphelan Leave a Comment

Mrs. Weishaar’s second grade class is leading our efforts to recycle plastic bags and wrapping at C.P. Smith Elementary School. These hard-to-recycle items often end up as litter in our neighborhood or floating in local waterways posing a threat to marine life. Help us dispose of detrimental plastics properly by placing your refuse plastic bags and wrap in the receptacles here at C.P. Smith. The teachers use these efforts as the basis for Science and Mathematics lessons. This effort was kicked off at a recent Friday Community Meeting and to date they have recycled 60 pounds of plastic, let’s help them recycle a bunch more!
