Dear Skokie Families,
I am excited to share that we are able to host a
"Reverse Parade"
for our 6th graders from
2:00-3:00 p.m. on Friday, June 5th.
-
This "reverse parade" would consist of Skokie Staff members stationed around our school along the sidewalks of the parade route, socially distanced from each other and your vehicles. Sixth grade families will drive through the parade route and staff will have a chance to celebrate and congratulate our sixth graders.
-
The parade will take place
June 5th, from 2:00-3:00 p.m
.
-
To help the parade flow and for safety reasons, we ask families to come at different times alphabetically by last name as follows:
-
A-D → 2:00-2:15
-
E-J → 2:15-2:30
-
K-R → 2:30-2:45
-
S-Z → 2:45-3:00
-
I will be sharing more specific details and instructions prior to next week, but I wanted to share this exciting information and make sure you had time to plan for this event.
We want everyone to feel comfortable and safe. We understand not all families and staff will be able to participate in this event for varying reasons. We are looking forward to seeing as many of you who are able to come.
All School Assembly
We invite you to join us
this afternoon
,
Tuesday, May 26th, at 1pm
for a unique joint Skokie/Washburne all school virtual assembly. We are excited to welcome Emmy nominated science communicator, experimental photographer, and visual artist Dr. José Francisco Salgado.
As the Executive Director of KV 265, a non-profit science and arts education organization, Dr. Salgado collaborates with orchestras, composers, and musicians to present films that provoke curiosity and a sense of wonder about the Earth and the Universe. In this presentation, Dr. Salgado will talk about the creative process behind Nocturnes, his latest film with music by Claude Debussy. This film explores how the night sky has inspired artists and motivated scientists to explore the Universe.
