COLECTIVA BILINGUE NEWS:
SAVE THE DATE for the first Annual “Copa Colectiva” on June 4

Let’s build community while cheering for our favorite team: our Spanish dual language students!

WHAT: “Copa Colectiva” unites our five schools on a Saturday morning to play soccer and compete in fun skills challenges, to cheer on our teachers, to recognize students moving up in the Spanish pathway (to 6th grade and 9th grade) and to celebrate those high school students who have achieved the Bilingual Seal. Add this to your family’s calendar! We will have activities by age group, yummy concessions, and maybe even a school staff vs staff (or parents?!) match. Opportunity for older students to get volunteer hours for planning and running the contests, and lots of fun for all ages.

WHEN: Saturday June 4, 2022 9:00AM-12:00PM @ Roosevelt High School Stadium

WHO: Families and staff of MPS’ five Spanish dual language school programs at Emerson, Green Central and Sheridan elementary schools, Andersen United Middle School and Roosevelt High School.

Our planning team needs you! As we create this event this spring, we want representatives from all five schools, to make something fun and inclusive of our whole community. To share your ideas and get involved, join our planning meeting on Zoom on Tuesday March 1 at 8:00pm https://us02web.zoom.us/j/87821568548?pwd=UGJvTDU2KzVsQ0p4UHpkbUdCRUNFQT09 or contact colectivabilingue@gmail.com for more information.
