PRINCIPAL’S
MESSAGE: Apr. 3, 2006 |
 Ground-Breaking Ceremony Today
Work
on the new wing at Hall will begin today. We are all excited about
the work that will be done and the new classrooms and offices that
will be at Hall for the fall. The construction at the drop-off
loop will include eight new classrooms, two offices and two student
restrooms. We will commemorate the start
of the work with a ground-breaking ceremony today at 3:30pm in
the drop-off loop. Please come join us as we celebrate the beginning
of the project.
Hall Summer School
The Larkspur Summer
Academy (LSA) will provide summer school for Hall and Neil Cummins
students. Due to the construction at Hall, all of the classes will
be held at Neil Cummins. LSA classes will be open to students most
in need of summer help, as nominated by their teacher. LSA will
only be for students who are academically “at
risk” in math and/or language arts. Teachers will soon send
home a letter to the parents of eligible students. LSA will
run from Tuesday, June 20th to Friday, July 21st (5 weeks), and
will only be Tuesday through Friday each week. School will be from
9:00 to 12:00, with a 20-minute break. Lunch will be available.
Note that Ross Valley Summer School will be held at Bacich this
year, while Corte Madera Parks and Recreation’s “Summer
Playground” and “Camp EdventureMore” will be
available on or near Neil Cummins Campus. Our LSA principal will
be announced soon. Until then, send all questions to Mr. Carvey
at ccarvey@marin.k12.ca.us or
927-6965 ext.1269
Thank You, Foundation
We are excited
to showcase a new sound system at Hall Middle School. Whether your
child goes to Neil Cummins or Hall Middle, this is a great purchase
and I am very pleased that we will all benefit from it. We are
happy to have two mounted speakers, new microphone inputs, amplifier
and CD player. The new system will improve a range of activities
in the gym, including plays, musical performances, graduation and
assemblies.
The original request for the sound system was submitted
by me during last year’s “Raise the Paddle” fundraiser
at the Corte Madera Larkspur Schools Foundation Spring Auction.
Thanks to the generosity of the families in our community, we were
able to raise the funds necessary to make this purchase.
Special thanks go to Bruce Amos and Kit Warne who
were instrumental in the research, purchase and installation of
the new sound system. Musical productions and band performances
will sound even sweeter!
