9/22 - 9/30

If your child is making his/her cardboard challenge game at home, check out these great ideas & ask your child what game he/she would like to make.  In the library, we've been "researching games" by playing cardboard challenge games created by students.  Students researched "what was fun" & "what would they change to make the game better."  Use this planning guide to help with the game design process.  Need more inspiration?  Be sure to watch Caine's Arcade & come to our family event, Eat, Play, Build on October 2 from 5:30-7:00. You can test out your child's game or build the game right then & there.

Health and Safety Committee Concerns from September 18, 2017.

1.  Concern: Parents riding bikes through the halls 

     Bikes should be parked in the racks and no one is permitted to ride their bike through campus.

     If you must walk from one end of campus to the other, the rider must get off their bike and walk it.
