Every year around this time, the City of Darien hosts an Arbor Day event. It's attended by several area schools, the Morton Arboretum, and many other members of Darien's gardening and parks community. Our 3rd graders attend and release butterflies they have been caring for since they were in their larva stage. Thank you to the Gift of Carl Foundation for donating the butterflies and gift packets that come with them, as well as our 3rd grade team for taking the time to incorporate the "life cycle of a butterfly" into their teaching.
It has come to our attention that the time listed on some Saturday tickets may be displaying incorrectly when downloaded. Please note that the Saturday performance will begin at 6:00 PM.
The Friday performance remains at 7:00 PM as scheduled.
There is no need for concern—your tickets will still scan correctly at the event. Our main priority is making sure everyone arrives on time, so please plan accordingly using the correct show times above.
Thank you for your understanding, and we look forward to seeing you there!
Happy Earth Day! Mrs. Spakausky's class went outside to help clean up trash. Thank you for your stewardship, 4th graders!!
Tomorrow is our Panther Progress! We are proud of the work our students are doing, and invite their VIPs to tour our school and engage in their learning with them. Doors are open from 4:00 - 7:00, and Team 66 has arranged for a few food trucks. See you tomorrow!
The front desk is the heart of our school. When new students enroll in our district, when parents call with a question, or when students need help during the day, Mrs. Whitt is the first person they see. We are grateful for her kindness and support for students. Happy Administrative Assistants day, Mrs. Whitt!!
