SCIENCE FAIR NEXT WEEK

The Fifth Annual Science Fair will be next week, Tuesday March 11th at 6:30.  Students can set up their displays between 6;15 and 6:30 in the cafeteria.  All students should have an adult present at the event.  We look forward to seeing everyone's projects.

 

Science Fair Judges Needed - The Science Fair Committee is looking for volunteers with science backgrounds to help review projects the night of the fair.  No experience is necessary.  The projects are not being scored.  The feedback forms will simply be used to provide constructive comments to the students.   Feedback forms and guidelines are available on the Science Fair website at www.clespta.org/ScienceFair. Email Leslie Stroud at thestrouds@comcast.net  if you are interested or need more information.

 

SCHOOL SUPPLY PROGRAM 2008-2009 The PTA School Supply Program is in progress! Hopefully you received the school supply form which was sent home with every student last Friday.  Please return the form with payment to the school by Thursday, March 13th.  In early June your child will have his/her school supplies for next school year delivered to his/her classroom in a sturdy carrier box.  You'll be off the hook for fighting the ‘Back to School' crowds and can enjoy the last days of summer vacation instead!  Besides saving you time, your child will have exactly what the teachers request and at a reasonable price.  If you have any questions call Patti Demme at 410-730-3119.  Extra order forms are available in the school entryway.

 

Great Dolphin Swimmers!  Congratulations CLES Swimmers!  Tom Brown, Robert Hunter and Alex Johnson participated in the MD State Championship Swim Meet (9-10 age group) this past weekend at the Naval Academy.  Tom placed 3rd in the 50 free, 6th in the 100 free, and 6th in the 200 free.  Robert placed 8th in the 100 back.  Way to go!
