These Boots Are Made For Dancing

You're all invited to line dance on Thursday, March 12, from 7:00 to 9:00 pm at the school. Sponsored by the Parents Group. Bring the family and have a great time with DJ Curt and Rachel Motsko. Soda and chips will be sold for refreshments.

Open House

It's the Annual Jazzy Night Review Open House on April 2 from 6:00 to 8:00 pm. This is one of our biggest events of the year. To help with the parking congestion, shuttle busses run from 5:45 to 8:15 pm between St. Margaret Mary's Church on Pennsylvania Avenue and the school. Hot dogs, pizza, soda, and chips will be sold in the cafeteria - so forget about supper that night. There will be a program given out that night for your guidance to all events. Some classrooms will be open for displays of students' work and other grades will have displays in the large or small gym and auditorium - including our AES Music Demo. You're welcome to visit the computer lab. Check out the Book Fair sponsored by the AES Parents Group. And lots, lots more!

I personally invite the parents, grandparents, brothers, sisters, or friends - and especially all of our community members - to join us this night to see what our teachers and students have accomplished this year to date. (Remember, behind every successful school there is a good working staff - principal, secretaries, teachers, aides, custodial staff, cafeteria staff, grade mothers and fathers, and community members.)
