Big thanks to Mrs. Amy Kiviranna and our PTO for making annual C.P. Smith Scholastic Book Fair a big success! The fair was held on November 6 and 7 and Family Night at the Book Fair was very well attended. Thanks to all who volunteered and attended. A portion of the proceeds from the Book Fair help support our school and although the event is over here at school the fair may be visited online at www.scholastic.com/fair Again, special thanks to Mrs. Kiviranna and our super-supportive PTO for making this great event possible!
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!
