School Closed Tomorrow

No school tomorrow, Monday October 14th (Columbus Day). 

To deepen students' thinking around Christopher Columbus, we will read the book Encounter written by Jane Yolen.  Told from a young Taino boy’s point of view,  this is a story of how the boy tried to warn his people against welcoming the strangers, who seemed more interested in golden ornaments than friendship. 

We are eager for our conversation around Encounter

See you Tuesday.
