P.E. CLASS

March 10 to 14, 2014

“Happy is the man who findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding. For the merchandise of it is better that the merchandise of silver, and the gain thereof than fine gold.”

As always reminding you that for P.E. class:

We need all students to wear proper clothing for the class.

·       Sneakers, long shorts (boys and girls) or sweat pants, and t-shirt (without cleavage) or jerseys.

-  No dresses for the girls

-  No jeans

-  No crocs

-  No sandals

-  No boots or shoes

(Please, mom & dad collaborate with us by sending a proper sunscreen or sun block with your son or daughter to avoid any skin rash, and there is a need for a fly repellent as well.)

9^th – 11^th grade, we will be working on physical endurance, lots of exercises with running sessions, and will do some passing drills for soccer.

6^th to 8^th grade, we will be working, to some extent, in physical conditioning, and we will mix it with games such as capturing the flag and man hunt.

CHRONICLES OF DISCOVERY SCHOOL - Each year at Discovery School we host the event "Chronicles of Discovery," destined to promote literature and art developed by our students and to reward those whose works excel in these areas. The event is organized by the students of the AP Literature and Composition class. Throughout the award ceremony, students conduct art exhibition, musical performance, and recitation, among other activities. There will also be live music and refreshments for everyone to enjoy.

We would like to invite you to Chronicles of Discovery and help us fund it. The event is sponsored by companies and donations from parents. Any sum of money is welcomed, and may be delivered to Mr. Fenn (high school building, room no. 3). Thank you for helping us promote the artistic school spirit. We hope to see you at the event, April 25.
