Roosevelt School Mother's Day Boutique
With generous donations from friends, Roosevelt School's faculty and staff and members of the upstairs administrative staff, Mrs. Hunter and Dr. Reynolds's , "Hey, what do you think about this for Mothers' Day...?" idea became a reality.
On two mornings in the first week of May, the cafeteria at Roosevelt School became a ladies' boutique. Every student had the opportunity to pick out one free gift from over 300 items that a mother, guardian, grandmother - any lady special to them -might enjoy receiving. There were scarves, purses, all types of jewelry, and many other items from which to choose.
The children seemed to enjoy the "shopping" experience almost as much as Ms. Mako, Ms. Barrett, and Ms. Valko - the adults who set it up with Mrs. Hunter. In fact, these ladies have already started planning for next year's boutique!
Happy Mothers' Day to all of the important ladies in our lives!

Ms. Micolucci's HEROES Art Club creates unique self portraits! Ms. Micolucci's after school Art Club has been studying the art of self portraits. The fifth grade students decided to make three dimensional portraits by making molds of their own faces using Plaster of Paris and working with a partner. After the plaster was dry, each student had a three dimensional mold of their very own face. They then worked on creating a sketch that represented themselves as artists. Once their sketch was complete, the students transferred the sketch on to their mask and then used acrylic paints to make their design colorful. Each of the self portraits is one of a kind, making the artwork a unique and a true representation of the Artist.
