Thanks for a Memorable
Back to School Night
We appreciate everyone's attendance last night. We had full attendance and apologize to those of you who had to stand. It is our sincere hope you enjoyed yourself and gained some insight. Whether it have been through:
- Learning some unusual or humorous fact about one of our faculty or staff
- Being inspired by the parent perspective of Elizabeth Shier-Burnett and David Burnett
- Admiring the wise perspective of WSOC alumni, Alexis Meadows
- Or, by witnessing the joy and cooperation of your children's participation in Michaelmas through the slide show, with musical accompaniment by the beautiful voices of our teachers
Congratulations to the Lazzara family, the lucky winners of the reserved parking space!

High School Musical Outreach
This is short-notice, but a nice opportunity if you're looking to experience some great music tomorrow evening.
WSOC High School student, Stephanie Burritt, is a member of an outreach youth ministry group which provides musical experiences for at-risk youth in O.C. In fact, Stephanie's abilities on the cello and volunteer efforts earned her a full scholarship to the month-long summer program at the Berklee College of Music in Boston.
Stephanie is part of the entertainment group playing Friday, October 5, 7:30PM at St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church. The program is titled "A Musical Journey through the Americas featuring Latin Lazz, Orchestral, Tango, and R&B." Tickets are $7. For more information or to purchase tickets, visit http://www.sapres.org/concerts/
Congratulations on your efforts and scholarship Stephanie.

Join the Craft Group!
We meet every Wednesday outside
the Company of Angels 8:45 to 11am.
Each week we have a new project from knitting to batiking, no prior experience necessary just a willingness to try something new and learn.
Over the school year we will touch on our handwork program from grades 1 thru 9, this will give you an inside look at what your children will experience.
So far this year we have made gnomes, dry felted, crocheted and marbleized paper. Next week we will felt pictures and mount them into frames that will be mosaic the following week. We also ask that each participant make a small picture that will be donated to the Elves Workshop for the Winter Festival.
Christine Newell (Handwork teacher) is offering a 16in Heirloom Waldorf Doll workshop for 4 consecutive Mondays (October 8th, 15th, 21st, 28th) again no experience necessary. Total cost including materials $85.

Halloween
Wednesday October 31, we welcome the children in grades 1 to 12 to dress up in creative costumes. Please refrain from costumes that have toys or simulated weapons, scary masks, gory make-up, and are skimpy or revealing. Costumes should not interfere with regular schoolwork and activities (keep in mind Strings and Games classes). These are the general rules; you may receive more specific instructions from your child's teacher
