We had our first official meeting last week and are all so excited about this school year! In addition to incredible enrichment programs and field trips, we are brainstorming some new ideas for the school community - and we can't wait to share them with you soon. Be sure to keep reading our newsletters for important updates! October is going to be a really great month! And if you ever have questions or suggestions, please email us at ptomiddleton@gmail.com! 

We were excited to welcome back Johnny the K, nationally acclaimed, award-winning musician and teacher, who visited our Kindergarten through 3rd grade students this week! Along with a 12-string guitar and his unique collection of costume hats, he humorously inspires character education through song. In every show the message is clear: each student can make a difference in school, at home and in the community. 

Len Cabral, an internationally acclaimed storyteller, returned to Howe-Manning this week! Len uses his workshops to focus on storytelling in art form. He facilitates exercises that engage students in the process of telling their own stories, as a precursor to writing their stories.  Such an incredible performance - the students loved it! 

On October 25th and October 26th, the Discovery Museum will be presenting Physical Changes of Matter II to our 6th Grade students. Session times are 9:20-10:20, 11:25-12:25 and 1:35-2:35. We are looking for a few parent volunteers to help assist with each session - you do not have to be available for all of them. If you are interested, please email ptomiddleton@gmail.com by October 17th.  *You must have a CORI completed through the school.
