30 Hour Famine Students Raise over $7500
Almost two dozen Presentation School students participated in this year's 30 Hour Famine, led by 8th graders Natalie Gulrajani and Hannah Porter. They went without food for 30 hours to help bring awareness to and stamp out world hunger.
Said teacher advisor Tracy Walthard:
"I had the privilege of spending 30 hrs with 19 amazing students. I am so proud of them! 30 hrs no food, made 80 sack lunches for Brown Baggers, and raised $7,500 for World Vision. Teaching continues to give me hope for our future! These kids are inspiring!!!!!"

4th Grade Explores California History in Coloma
Grade 4 just returned from three days in Coloma, studying the Gold Rush (and panning for gold!) as the culmination of their California history curriculum.
The Coloma Outdoor Discovery School's Gold Rush program is designed for fourth graders, and is correlated with the California Content Standards. The program is designed to celebrate the culture, music, and folklore of the California Gold Rush while using lessons of the past to awaken students' interest and sense of responsibility for the environment.
At CODS, students live in tents and experience the Gold Rush: stories, songs, skits, and characterizations all help to convey the social and economic community of early Coloma. Students walk in the footsteps of the 49ers and experience some of the challenges of surviving away from home. All of the educational programs at the Outdoor School operate around the concept of respect: for nature, oneself, and others.
