This Week in Pictures
Evansville Day School's art department hosted an art show in the Traylor Atrium on Tuesday, April 25. Each art student in grades K-12 had a piece on display. Families were invited to enjoy the art and light refreshements.







The second grade had a "pet show" this week where students were able to bring a pet to school for a 15 minute show and tell.







Students in grades K-5 each made different salsas this week in preparation for the Salsa Challenge. They had help from students in grades 6-12 to complete their recipes. They researched the recipes and learned Spanish words for the ingredients. On Friday, the whole school and their families were invited to come try the different salsas and learn to dance the Salsa in the Atrium. Special thanks to our amazing Spanish teachers for organizing this experiential eduation event and to Friends of EDS for sponsoring it!
