A very special thank you to PACS and all the parent volunteers that helped to put together an entire week of appreciation for The Craig School faculty and staff. We are all very grateful for such a supportive community behind us!

8th-grade spotlight plants
If your child is attending the dance please consider pushing an 8th grade spotlight plant that will line the entrance to the dance. You will receive the plant at the end of the night.
Last year we had 100% participation. If you want to participate, click the link below, locate your child, and complete the form. Send your $25 check made out to The Craig School or cash for the spotlight plant. Please mark it attention, Laura Given. If you have any questions email, lgiven@craigschool.org
Buddy Program - May 20 Last day of this year-long program. We will have a fun outdoor event to commemorate friendships made and our good times throughout the year.
Red Nose Day- May 23 This newly formed committee will begin meeting next week. Our focus is finding a non-profit we want to support, and then building lessons and a meaningful day of learning. The day ends with a student-run carnival.
Anything But a Backpack - Spirit Day - May 31 - This is our last spirit day of the year. The committee ran this spirit day the previous year and it is back by popular demand. Stay tuned for the rules of engagement!
Community Day - June 12 We partnered last year with PACS to develop this day. It was a huge success. The plans for this year are still in their infancy. Stay tuned as we continue to plan.
Our peer leaders continue to push into classes and work once a week successfully with their classes, This was the largest peer support group we ever had. I had more leaders who wanted to participate but unfortunately, their schedules simply didn't align with the classes requesting their services.
