Would you do us a favor? Please sign up for your Strawberry Festival volunteer hours (Berry Cleaning and Festival Days) on Conference Day this Friday.

We will be holding a rehearsal on April 18 (Conference Day) for cast members with speaking parts in our middle school production of Tom Sawyer. Rehearsal runs from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Be sure to bring a lunch! Cast members need to bring in their signed contracts this week.
There will be an additional extended P.O.P meeting on Wednesday, April 23,
from 3:30 p.m. until 5:00 p.m., so the students can participate in mediation
training with Susan Chapman. If there are any questions, please speak with
Pattie S.
Please mark your calendars for Arbor Day on April 25. Thanks to the dedicated efforts of our middle school students in the Garden Design and Land Use Management Friday Group, Community School will be hosting Arbor Day for all of Roanoke County. The students have planned all parts of our festivities. Please join us in the sports field from 10:30 a.m. to noon, rain or shine.
Elena is looking for Matchbox-sized vehicles (cars, trucks, planes, trains, etc.) for use in her Spanish classes. The younger students are studying transportation-related vocabulary and have laid out an entire city on the floor of the classroom.
Yesterday, Elena began hosting Spanish Lunches in her classroom every Monday. Bring your lunch and join her for Spanish conversation practice. Students and parents welcome.
Summer is just around the corner, so don't miss out on the opportunity to sign up your child for our C.S. summer camps. We still have a few openings in all of our fabulous camps. You can grab a camp flyer in the office or download it from our website. If you have any questions regarding camp, please feel free to contact Lucia at (540) 563-5036 or email at luciak@communityschool.net. Thank you!
We need people to sign up to drive for large order deliveries on Friday, May 2. We cannot pay for gas, but we do know it is very expensive. To thank you for your time and to help offset the cost of gas, for each hour of your driving shift, we will count it as two hours of volunteer time. (If you drive four hours, we will count it as eight hours of Strawberry Festival volunteer time.) Thank you for all you do toward making Strawberry Festival a success.
