Seussical Jr. at Longfellow MS
This Friday and Saturday from 7:00 to 9:00 PM in the Cafeteria.
Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty have lovingly brought to life all of our favorite Dr. Seuss characters, including Horton the Elephant, Gertrude McFuzz, Lazy Mayzie, and all of the Whos of Whoville! The score emerges as a Seussian Gumbo of musical styles, ranging from Latin to pop, swing to gospel, and R&B to funk! So let your fingers snap, and you're imagination run wild for "Oh, the thinks you can think, When you think about Seuss!" |
Saturday, May 15 from 11:00 AM to 5:00 PM

Time to Help One of Our Own Michelle Tate's husband -- Michelle is one of our Special Ed. Instructional Assistants -- was in a serious accident over the weekend. Chris Tate's injury requires a lot of blood replacement and whole blood is expensive. Michelle has asked people to donate blood if possible. The cost of your donated blood will be deducted from Chris's hospital bill. It doesn't matter what type blood you have, as long as it meets standard medical criteria. There are two ways to donate blood:
- Contact the INOVA Blood Donor Center at 1-866-256-6372 to make an appointment. If you have any questions about eligibility to donate blood, (trips out of the country, illnesses, etc.) please contact Pat Freeman at Inova. Her number is 571-434-3628. If you donate, please be sure to give them the name of Christopher Tate and that he is at Fairfax Hospital.
- There will be a blood mobile at Spring Hill Elementary on June 1st with all the blood to credit Christopher Tate. You can contact Susan Chait by email or phone (703-506-3403). (Chris's mother teaches at Spring Hill.)
One other thing we can help this young couple with: Chris is a personal trainer who will be out of work for some time while he recovers. In order to help with the costs of healthcare, a new prosthetic foot, and temporary unemployment, a fund has been set up. All donations go directly to Chris, the PayPal account is in his name and address. As you can imagine, a tragic event like this can be very difficult for a young couple. Please visit http://www.donate4christate.com/ to help out Chris and Michelle. |
