| Appleseed Dinner highlights innovative programs at CRPS (click on photo for slideshow) |
Circle-Rock Preparatory School's fourth Appleseed Dinner built bridges between staff, parents, students and Appleseed Partners. The evening offered refreshing proof that CRPS is giving children a Grade-A education.
Slide 1: Two middle school students explain what the school's new mentoring program does for them. You can be part of the Mentoring Program too!
Slide 2: Each table at Appleseed mixed staff, students and partners, giving people a chance to get to know each other.
Slide 3: Covenant Life Church of Grand Haven, MI helped school parents serve dinner
Slide 4: School parent Bernard Cobbins talks about why his two sons, Elijah and Malcolm, attend CRPS
Slide 5: Dinner attendees tour the JASON Project, an interdisciplinary curriculum that combines science, art and history in an engaging study of different subjects. This year the 5th-8th graders are studying the rain forest. Under the direction of art teacher Grace Wangombe they are building a rain forest in the school hallway and a river in one of the classrooms! The curriculum also teaches Internet skills as the students research and post papers.
Slide 6: You can't see it, but that's Latin they're singing! CRPS students are making remarkable progress as a new chapter of the Chicago Children's Choir.
Slide 7 & 8: An important aspect of the Appleseed Dinner is the chance it gives people to connect. Interim principal Glenda Harvey (slide 7) and teacher Inell Boone (slide 8) talk with Appleseed Partners.
Slide 9: You can become one of the people sitting here. Find out how on our Appleseed Program page!
