Dragon Happenings

Dear Imagine Families,   

DragonLogo

     

Friday night was our second Fall Festival and it was stupendous!  The layout and variety of activities, the weather, the drama presentation, the food and time for families to be together was an exceptional event.  Thank you to Amanda Calles for coordinating a wonderful night for our families.  You outdid yourself!

Earlier in the week the students experienced Hispanic Heritage Celebration that included visiting the Hispanic artifacts set up in the media center, a presentation by our Spanish students, music and food.  The kids had a great time, and the presentation by the students was informative and entertaining.  Thank you Mrs. Garcia for coordinating this for the entire school.
 
Second term of the school year begins on Tuesday the 23rd.  Report cards will be distributed on the 29th.  If you have questions about your child's progress, please contact the classroom teacher. 

There is no school on Monday.  This is a teacher planning day scheduled by the school district to finalize grades for the first quarter.  The school will be closed.  I will be away this week.  Please contact the office with any concerns.

On a final note, our school will have the honor of hosting Imagine's Founders, Dennis and Eileen Bakke, on Tuesday, October 30th.  We are incredibly excited to have the opportunity to welcome the Bakkes to our campus and share our school community with them!

THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!!

 

I just wanted to personally thank all of the volunteers and families that helped make the Fall Festival such a success. I hope everyone had a wonderful time. I want to especially thank Mrs. Slay for bringing her animals again this year and our Imagine family-the Frederique's -for supplying the princess bounce house. Please patron their business Bounce Utopia 813-475-4216.

Great American Teach In
HelpingChildrenLearn
The Great American Teach In is scheduled for Thursday November 15th.  This is an opportunity for you to come in and share information about your job with our students.  It gives you a chance to get students excited and give them options for their future. 

The time of day and amount of time you want to come in for is all up to you and what your schedule permits.  You also have the option of sharing with the whole school (in two different presentations) or with just your child's class or team.

If this is an opportunity you'd like to take (or you know someone who would), please contact Mrs. Denson at charlotte.denson2@imagineschools.com and list the time period you are available and whether you'd like to share with the school or just a class.  Thank you in advance!
