Dear Park Spanish Immersion School Community:
Yesterday, I was so very proud of our actors and stage crew in our school musical,
La Flauta Mágica.
Director Kim Wieber has again done a great job pulling two full casts of students together and helping them learn more about acting, how to work together, and building self-esteem, while delivering an hour long play in Spanish! All are invited to the evening performances on Friday and Saturday at 7 pm at our school. See more information below. Thanks to our PTO for their sponsorship of this amazing experience!
Tomorrow, our second graders will travel to the Science Museum of Minnesota. Next Wednesday, our kindergarten students will visit Westwood Hills Nature Center. Thanks to the parent volunteers helping to chaperone!
I am so very proud of our community; thank you for being a part of it!
Have a great week, and keep reading!
Sincerely,
Corey

WANTED: Musicians to form a 'Charanga' Band at PSI
|
Hello, my name is Raúl Bernabé Sebastián and I am the newest Amity Intern at PSI. I would like to form a
‘Charanga’. A Charanga is a little music band and is very popular in Spain. A 'Charanga' band usually plays happy songs. I'd like to teach this Spanish tradition, but I need musicians! I'll need 2-3 trumpet players, 2-3 saxophone players, including 1 tenor saxophone, 1 tuba player and 1-2 drummers (snare, bass and cymbals).
Once we have a group of musicians, we'll finalize the day of the week, time after school, and the location.

Meet Our New Amity Intern!
|
Due to family health issues, one of our Amity Interns had to leave in December. We are thrilled to welcome Raúl Bernabé Sebastián to our PSI community. The PSI Amity Interns join us from Spanish speaking countries and assist our teachers in the K-5 classrooms. These interns are either pursuing or have recently completed a college degree with an education focus. They are invaluable additions to our PSI classrooms and are funded by the PSI Parent Teacher Organization through the Fall Leer-a-tón and the Spring Carnival fundraising events. Learn more about Raúl by clicking
