Heritage Elementary School - Art Show
by: Gina Wherley
Please join us Tuesday, May 20th from 4-7 p.m. for the Heritage Elementary School - Art Show! We invite you to join your little artist/s as they guide you through the halls of Heritage Elementary showcasing their masterpieces. There will also be an opportunity to take a fun family photo in our art themed photo booth and students will receive a small gift as they depart the show. Their one-of-a-kind original artwork will hopefully inspire you to make a donation to Heritage FTO. The funds raised will help support the art department as well as other efforts like school events, teacher appreciation, musical instruments, class trips, supplies, etc. While their creations are "free of charge", donations are encouraged but completely optional. Their artwork will be making its way home to decorate your refrigerators and walls either way! Our goal is to raise $3,000 with a popcorn reward if we are successful. Thank you for your support of Heritage Elementary and the FTO. We hope you can join us and leave inspired and proud of your creative children!

Help Us Grow a Self-Sustaining Garden at Prairie Elementary School! At Prairie Elementary School, we believe in the power of hands-on learning and community engagement. We are excited to announce our initiative to create a self-sustaining garden that will serve both our students and their families. This garden will not only provide fresh produce but also foster a sense of responsibility, teamwork, and environmental stewardship among our young learners. You can support the Prairie Garden: $5 – says "Thank you for the fresh produce!" $10 – Buys a bag of compost or soil $25 – Pays for gardening tools & educational materials $50 – Refreshes our walkways with crushed gravel and mulch Why a Garden? A school garden is more than just a patch of soil; it’s a living classroom where students can explore science, nutrition, and sustainability. By participating in the garden, students will learn about the life cycle of plants, the importance of healthy eating, and the value of caring for our environment. Families will also have the opportunity to engage in this enriching experience, creating lasting memories and connections within our community.

1st Brigade Band - Civil War History Music Presentation
by: Danielle Werkheiser
Our 5th-grade students have a unique opportunity to learn about history through a live performance by the 1st Brigade Band, a Civil War reenactment group based in Watertown. According to their website, "In 1864, eighteen men from the Brodhead Brass Band enlisted in the Union Army and became the 1st Brigade Band, 3rd Division, 15th Army Corps. The 'Tradition of Excellence' that these men established more than 150 years ago continues today." We are excited to bring the band to our school in May. To make this experience possible, we kindly request your support in fundraising. We aim to raise $1000 to cover the expenses of bringing the 1st Brigade Band to our school on May 2nd. Any contribution, big or small, would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your consideration and support! Sincerely, 5th Grade Teachers
