Happy Friday! I hope you had a great week!

Here are some updates from this week and some upcoming events. Please note the details regarding the upcoming field trip.

Next field trip: UNIVERSITY OF DELAWARE BASKETBALL EDUCATION DAY FIELD TRIP

Students may use flex cards or cash to buy food and drinks at the concessions.

The College School is covering the cost of tickets and bus transportation.

PLEASE RETURN THE PERMISSION SLIPS BY MONDAY, 2/27/23.  

Director search: I am pleased to announce that the search committee has selected two excellent candidates for in-person interviews. The interviews will be March 1 and March 8. The schedule has been finalized. The candidates will present their vision of the future of the College School from 1:50 pm – 2:45 pm in the conference room in the Center for Disabilities Studies (immediately next door to the College School).   Your feedback is critical in this process! I will send a link to a form following each presentation to get your feedback.

Dress code: A gentle reminder about appropriate school attire. Over the past few weeks, we have seen an increasing number of crop tops or jeans that are ripped to the point that undergarments are exposed. We appreciate students being able to express themselves through clothing, but please save those outfits for weekends and days we do not have school. Shoes – for safety purposes on the playground and in the classroom, we need to enforce the shoe part of the dress code – students should wear comfortable, sturdy shoes and socks are recommended. NO open-toe shoes (e.g., sandals, crocs, flip-flops) are permitted.

Best wishes for a great weekend!
