  1. What a fashion statement. You guys should hoast a colonial day at Parkside, food fashion show, arts and crafts... maybe a mini museum.You can charge admisssion and send funds to Haiti via red cross. Just a thought.

  2. We're setting up an exhibit in the hallway and inviting some other classes up for free. Parents can see it during conference week. Should we charge admission then? Not that Haiti can't use more but the kids are doing a bake sale fundraiser. Thanks for reading the blog and for your comments. Cute picture of you guys too!!
