Next week we begin The Phantom Tollbooth! |
When Milo finds an enormous package in his bedroom, he’s delighted to have something to relieve his boredom with school. And when he opens it to find – as the label states – One Genuine Turnpike Tollbooth, he gets right into his pedal car and sets off through the Tollbooth and away on a magical journey!
Milo’s extraordinary voyage takes him into such places as the Land of Expectation, the Doldrums, the Mountains of Ignorance and the Castle in the Air. He meets the weirdest and most unexpected characters (such as Tock, the watchdog, the Gelatinous Giant, and the Threadbare Excuse, who mumbles the same thing over and over again), and, once home, can hardly wait to try out the Tollbooth again. But will it be still there when he gets back from school?
Dear Parents,
Welcome back to the second semester and the beginning of a new calendar year.
I
want to give you a quick update on the events at Campus School. As you
know, we lost one of our children, Quindarious McGaughy, over the
holidays. We observed
a moment of silence this morning in his honor. We had three mental
health professionals in the building who spent time with his class,
answering questions and allowing them the opportunity to reminisce.
They were also available to any student who may have
needed support as they processed the loss. It has been a sad day here,
but sadness is the by-product of love, which is a gift to us all.
I
also want you to be aware that we are reviewing our emergency
management plan and have requested the director of emergency management
at the University come to review
all the plans and drills we have in place. As we reevaluate our
security, we may make some changes that you will be notified of
immediately. Please know that everything we do, from parking lot
expectations, to sign-in/out requirements, to placard requirements
on the passenger side visor of your car, are strictly in the best
interest of our children. There are easier methods, but these are the
safest we know of and that is our top priority.
Campus
School staff and faculty are proud to be a part of your families.
Thank you for your confidence and support in allowing us to spend our
days with your most
precious children.
Sincerely,
Susan Copeland
Hey parents! CSPN is hosting an exciting new event in January and we need volunteers.
What: Family Fun Night
When: Thursday, January 24 from 5:45PM to 7:45PM
Why: Because January is a blah month full of Christmas bills and cold weather, so come to Campus School and have some FREE fun!
Theme: Career Night - Come find out what cool jobs your classmates' parents have!
Event
Overview: Val Russell (Porter’s Mom) has volunteered to bring her
amazing aerial group to Campus School and perform 3 shows for Family Fun
Night. This is going to be a huge treat for all of
us. While it may be hard to be as cool as Val’s aerial act we know we
have lots of talented parent’s at Campus School and we want to share
these talents with our kids. The plan is to have parents manning
different career rooms so the kids can experience all
types of careers during the evenings. So far we have the following
rooms:
•
Airline Pilots (need/have 1 volunteer David)
•
Chefs (need)
•
Artist (need)
•
Journalist/Authors (need)
•
Gardening/Landscaping (have 2 volunteers Corrie/Joellen)
Computer Programming (need/have 1 volunteer Libby)
• Teachers/Professors (need/ have 1 volunteer Riki J.)
Please email Julie Nanney at
bonanney@gmail.com to volunteer to help in one of the career rooms
or have an idea for another room. Also, you can sign up to help on the

Thanks in advance for your help in making this night possible.
