Art Reflections Update

Art Night 2011 is next week, Wednesday,November 16 from 6:00 – 8:00!  PES has just been re-certified by the Kennedy Center arts integration specialists as a CETA school — “Changing Education Through the Arts.”  This means we have renewed our partnership with the Kennedy Center and next week will be an arts integration celebration as much as a celebration of your childrens’ artistic talents!

We will have special guests from the Kennedy Center participating in our art galleries and teacher-led arts integration stations.  Our theme this year is Where the Wild Things Are, and each grade will have a special interactive station where children will dance, sing, make music, create pieces of art, and otherwise dramatize Max and his many monster friends.

Our judges have given placements to each of the grade level arts entries categories in the Reflections contest, and every child who participated in the Reflections contest will receive a school PTA ribbon.  We will display works of art from every student at PES, both in the gym and throughout the hallways of the school.  Slice of Old Towne Pizza will be selling pizzas, hot dogs, salads and drinks for the evening.  Please come join us for this special night and Let the Wild Rumpus Begin!” Please don’t forget to sign up to help!!!
