Message from the Principal
Hello Deerfield Families,
I am pleased to announce that next Friday, February 3, is Movie Night at Deerfield School! Movie Night is a Student Council event that our committee representatives and leaders organize and run with help from the Student Council advisors. In years past our students, and the parents of our younger students, packed like sardines into the gym for a screening of a kid-friendly movie. It was hot and stuffy and smelled like a rented bowling shoe after league night. Last year we tried something new. We had each grade in one classroom, supervised by two adults, to watch a movie of their choosing (age appropriate, of course). The new format worked well, so we are using it again this year.
The committee members solicited movie preferences from the students in each grade. Nominations were made, votes counted, and winners identified. The line-up for 2011-2012 Deerfield Movie Night is:
Kindergarten: Marmaduke
Grade 1: Kung Fu Panda
Grade 2: Smurfs
Grade 3: Soul Surfer
Grade 4: Nim's Island
Grade 5: Soul Surfer
Several people are responsible for the creative thinking and hard work that are going to make Movie Night a success. The Student Council advisors; Ms. Chen, Ms. Hayes, and Mrs. Spellman; worked diligently with the student council leaders and committee members to make this event a success. The students were fabulous. They brainstormed ideas, made posters, and are ready to help on the big night. The students are:
Officers: Matt Capone, Isabella Medina, John McKinnon, and Grace Murphy
3rd grade: Sarah Bernardo, Hailey Casey, Tommy Krumsoek, Juliana Ventura
4th grade: Anne-Marie Maughn, Natalie DeMaio, Bella Hamdan, Sarah Roycroft
5th grade: Johanna Barrows, John Delfeld, Katherine Keith
Most notably for parents, we have recruited enough staff members to cover every classroom, so this is a drop-off event for all students! Let's have a big round of applause for our dedicated chaperones who volunteered to spend a Friday evening with Deerfield students:
Mrs. Casey, Ms. Chen, Mrs. DeAngelis,. Ms. Greene, Ms. Hayes, Mrs. Krass, Mr. Kuklentz, Mrs. McCarty, Mrs. Nesbitt, Mrs. Schaffner, Mrs. Spellman,, Mrs. Sullivan, and Ms. Tosches
My kids and I are looking forward to the big event! I hope to see you at Movie Night at the Deerfield Theater, Friday February 3, from 6:00pm to 8:00pm.
Yours truly,
Allan Cameron
