Below is the information that was sent home with students regarding our 25 word writing contest.

Learning to be a great writer is one of the objectives for students at Lettie Brown. In order to practice writing, Lettie Brown is having a writing contest. The challenge of this contest is writing an extraordinary story in 25 words or less.

Specifics regarding the contest:

§  The story needs to be 25 words or less

§  The story should have a beginning, middle and end

§  All students, kindergarten through sixth grade, have the option to participate

§  Stories need to be turned into the office by May 4^th

§  A winner will be chosen from each grade level

Here is an example of a 25 word story:

§  My ice cream cone was fresh and cold. The day was hot. The day was old. I’d better eat it before it drips. Yum!

Good luck!

Below is a note from the 2012 Fine Arts Day chairperson, Kelly Scarfe.


I am happy to announce Lettie Brown Fine Arts Day will be in full swing Friday April 27th 8:30 am until 2:00 pm.

We will have a day filled with orchestra concerts, art projects, acapella groups, an all school art show and a Brown School side walk chalk extravaganza! This is an all day event and for it to run smoothly and we looking for parent volunteers! Even if you can stay for only an hour, the PTO would love your help!!

I will need help running classroom projects, cleaning up projects, moving supplies from one class to another throughout the day. All projects and supplies will be set and ready to go for each class.
Please email or call me if you are interested in helping out with our Fine Arts Day! Come and join the fun!! Thank you from myself and the PTO for your support. We know that we could not run these great events with out our parent support!
