Various School-Related Items

Yesterday and today was the first LabArts Expo. Students from the Nursery School classes through Seniors in high school had artwork displayed, and today there were several hours of performances as well. Alex's class had a display of their self-portraits where you could lift up a picture of the self-portrait to see the picture of the student that they worked from underneath. We had lots of fun looking at the artwork and enjoying the performances. Alex really seemed to like the dancing and the cellos.

We also had a parent let us know that Alex was in the video for this year's big fundraiser for the school. It can be viewed here (Connections 2012). Alex's class at their garden starts at 46 seconds in to the video.

Finally, Alex had a playground mishap and his first visit to the school nurse on Friday. He got his finger caught and the tip is pretty torn up. No stitches needed though, so that was good news. The nurse reported that he was very brave, and he's been doing pretty well with letting us take care of it.
