Adventures In Art (AIA) Spotlight
Our second AIA project was painting with acrylic, “Water Lilies” By Ashish Sharma.
This was inspired by Claude Monet and his garden pond where he created these famous artworks. They learned about the “Tache Technique” which Monet and other impressionists used.
Thank you to Corene and Aja and our dedicated AIA team for providing the materials and lessons for our students to experience different art styles. We are so thankful that we can have such fantastic art projects at school. The students are ALL superstar artists!!
Here are some pictures from Ms. Camberos-Hinds 2nd/3rd grade class!
And here's Ms. O's kindergarten class!
Get ready for a fun week!
❄️ If your child is having a class celebration this week, the room parents and/or teachers will send out the details via email! 🎉
A BIG thank you!! 💖
Thank you for making Arlington Holiday Giving efforts a success.
We are grateful for all the food items, personal items, toys and gift cards that were donated to meet the needs of Arlington families and other families in our community through Superstars Helping Superstars, Project Hope, and the local fire station.
We are so proud of our Arlington families for your generous giving spirit this holiday season.
The faces of PTA!
Here are just a few of our wonderful parent PTA volunteers!
PTA is a wonderful group of volunteers, who give their time, energy, ideas, resources, and talents... all share one common goal to make the campus THE BEST for our students.
We have behind the scenes efforts that you can join us in: creating google docs, digitizing flyers, making copies in the office, prepping classroom project materials, organizing Spirit Wear or Red Ribbon Week, sending emails, etc.
We also have more visible roles: hands-on-help with art activities, working in the library, chaperoning a field trip, coordinating an event, putting on a luncheon for the staff, organizing student prizes, set up a scholarships awards ceremony, or a dance, etc.
We'd love to have you join the PTA. There are always students (and parents) graduating each year so we need new talents and new faces to join our team!
Reach out to Stacie via email at president.arlingtonpta@gmail.com to get more involved with the school PTA.
L to R: Helty, Kelly, Kacie, Traci, Cindy, Corene, Chrystal, Eunice, Elisabeth, Dr. Hath and Stacie
