Hello Daves Avenue Families,
All 4th grade students have been working on a Cultural Research Project titled, “The Flags of Our Class” and this morning we shared and celebrated their diversity at our Wednesday Wave. Following the assembly, all 4th grade classes celebrated with a Cultural Potluck and shared some of their favorite family recipes with their peers. Thank you to the families who joined in the celebration!

As you know, Daves Avenue participated in the Great Kindness Challenge last week. Are you interested in a fun dinnertime conversation? Ask your child how much kindness costs and what it means. Their answer should be “
kindness costs nothing and means everything
”. Here is our certificate and Kindness Seal for our participation in this national challenge.
