Teacher Appreciation Week

Don’t forget this week is Teacher Appreciation Week. Look for a message from you class’ parent representation or express your appreciation in your own creative way!

Variety Show Rehearsal this Thursday, May 5

This Thursday May 5 is the Variety Show rehearsal in the cafeteria from 1:30- 2:15 for upper campus students and lower campus students can start at 2:15 -3:00. We will move through the acts as quickly as possible. All acts that are ready to perform at Thursday’s practice will be included in the show. If your student’s class is performing, they do not need to go to rehearsal. The teachers will ensure they are ready to perform.

The show will take place May 13 at the MIT auditorium tentatively at 6pm with upper school acts before intermission and lower school acts after intermission. We are confirming the timing with the team at MIT. We have a number of classes doing ensemble performances, which is very exciting, but we may need to work out a few details on how to best accommodate all the acts.

Please stay tuned for an update on performance details, and if you have any questions please contact whitney@roosevelt-pta.com or 650-740-9337.
