Celebrating Peace- 2017 Peace Assembly
Parker Snapshot- Celebrating Peace
Dear Parker community,
As you read through to the end of this snapshot, you will see a few culminations of projects we’ve been working on this fall. The new projectors are in place! And our robotics team competed last weekend and the 4-5 class delivered their stories to A Child’s Place in Troy. We are proud and grateful.
We took time together this morning, to gather, and hear every voice in song. Today’s music showed the learning and growth in choral and our band students. Many thanks to Sarah Militano, for working so carefully to get all the students ready for today. Music brings communities together.
During this week I asked student of all ages to tell me what peace is, and when and where they feel at peace. Their lines are composed into the found poem below. Notice that our school provides peace, as does the presence of family. So, to our families at this time of year, I would like to say, thank you– for providing both a Parker education and a supportive family for your children.
I wish you all a wonderful break and some memories for all to cherish. I look forward to welcoming one and all back in 2018!
Laura Graceffa
Head of School
