Dear Parents,

This year's Travilah Lunar New Year celebration will be on Wednesday 2/3/16.  Please put this date on your calendar and reserve time to help out! The main event will happen between 12-2pm.  But we definitely need help in the morning starting 10am for decorating the gym, setting up the place, and clean afterwards!  So the more the merrier!

Dear Parents,

Thank you so much for all the parents came to Travilah helping with Lunar New Year Celebration today!  It was a huge success!  Kids had a blast, they were so happy and so excited doing all the crafts, games and listening to the presentation at this rainy day!  A lot of kids and teachers came afterwards giving personal thanks for all the work we've done!  Without all your help and support, this wouldn't be so successful!  We are so proud of Travilah community making this cultural event so successful!  We know Travilah ES is one of the few schools celebrating Chinese new year at school!  Kids all feel lucky they belong to such a great school!  We even had a professional photographer taking pictures for us today.  We will share the pictures with you once they are available!

We'd also like to thank Mrs. Shenk, Mrs. Hairston, Mrs. Rubenstein, Mrs. Boyer and all the teachers for their help and support on this important event.

For parents who volunteered on the event, please check if your volunteer hours are filled correctly in below google doc.  If not, please update them by the end of this Friday, I will then forward it to the chair who collects all the volunteer hours.
