Join the Library Birthday Book Club!
This year the library is continuing with the very special Birthday Book Club. Simply donate $15 to the Strandwood Library and a beautiful, new hardcover book will be given to the library in honor of your child's birthday. A custom made book plate will be placed in the book with your child's name and birthday displayed for years to come! To participate, see form HERE. 
Sutter's Fort Meeting on Wednesday

The Environmental Living Program is a special event that allows our school's fourth graders to experience a piece of history. The students, along with their volunteer leaders and trained parent helpers, spend 24 hours portraying characters of 1840's California and partake in the various trade activities and entertainment of the era.

  This is a hands-on 12-week program beginning in January. Fourth graders will meet every Wednesday from 12:30pm-2:00pm, with the program ending in an overnight trip to Sutter's Fort on March 24, 2015. Parent participation is mandatory and each child must be accompanied by a parent or guardian during the overnight stay. The program is limited to 45 students on a first-come, first-served sign-up basis at the end of October. 

A mandatory parent meeting will take place on Wednesday, October 15th at 7:00pm in the school library. If you have any questions, please contact Jessie Thomas, Mandy Mofrad or Dara Duane.
