On January 24, 2008 at 7:00 the award ceremony for the AAFCU art show will take place at the Celebration Place (Next to Corral West-use the Burlington Coat entrance). Scott elementary had one place winner this year, Marlee Tate (she won 1st place). If you would like to come and support this wonderfully talented 4th grader or just check out the show (we have 18 pieces in the show) you are more than welcome. You may even see me in a tie? -Mr. Bown

The Music Department will sponsor a Support Our Troops Night at Scott Elementary on February 26th from 6:30 – 7:30 p.m. The night will begin with a short musical concert by local military vocal musicians paying tribute to the men and women who have served our country. We are asking for your help in inviting as many military families to attend as possible. The remainder of the evening will be spent kicking off the new, Singing Card Game/Contest. Children will receive points for singing simple songs to individual adults and collecting adult autographs. Is there anything more cheerful than the sound of children singing fun songs? My vision involves coordinating this event so that our students and parents can interact face to face with returning military service men and women, asking them for their autographs, thanking them for keeping us safe, and sharing the gift and joy of music making with them. At the same time, students will be having fun and accomplishing a music room goal. There will be prizes and refreshments too. So make plans to join in this worthy endeavor. Invite your friends and families and let’s show our returning troops our love and thanks!
