Dear Park Spanish Immersion Elementary School Community:
It's been a fun week at PSI, and I'm looking forward to celebrating with our community at Carnaval this weekend from 12:00-2:30 at our school. Please note that on-site parking will be limited to the upper parking lot only. Thanks to Westwood Lutheran Church (immediately to our east) for allowing us to use their parking lot, and families can also park on the southside of Cedar Lake Road following local regulations and being kind to our neighbors.
This week, our Amity interns have done a phenomenal job teaching baile folklórico as a part of "Dance Week" in physical education class. Our learners learned about and had the opportunity to participate in Cumbia, Flamenco, the "El baile del gorila." Click here for some pictures, and these songs will be played throughout Carnaval so students can choose to dance if they like!
On Saturday, our "Lost and Found" will be on display outside by the gymnasium doors (door 2). Please help us get items to their homes! Also, some of our great fifth grade students wanted to take a collection for STEP (St. Louis Park Emergency Program). There will be a table near the "Lost and Found" to donate items. Please see here for recommended donation items.
Thanks for sharing your amazing children with us. I can't wait to see many of you at Carnaval on Saturday! Don't forget your sunscreen, and labeled water bottles! Have a great week!
Corey
