Sangster News You Use


Student Intentions for Next School Year

It is important as we prepare for the upcoming school year that we have accurate information regarding your student's intentions for the 2018-2019 school year.  Please return the Student Intention form going home today to your child's teacher by May 11, 2018.


Student Placements for 2018-19

While it is still early to be thinking ahead to next school year, we want to give you information about class placements for the 2018-19 school-year ahead of time.  The staff at Sangster works hard to place students in an optimal learning situation each year.  If you have some information that would help us make those decisions, please send your comments in writing to Ms. Reddel by June 8.  Please do not list teacher names.   Rather, describe the learning environment in which your child learns best.

 


Progress Reports

3rd Quarter Progress Reports will be coming home with the students on Thursday, April 26th.  Please review, sign and return the Progress Report envelope..


Sangster Summer Stock Musical Theatre Camp

July 9th - July 20th  9:00am - 1:00 pm

Celebrating its 15th year, the PTA will once again be sponsoring Sangster Summer Stock for rising 3rd through 7th graders.

For ten non-stop days, our young actors, actresses, and production crew will participate in a musical theatre camp that allows them to experience life as a summer stock performer.  Children with all levels of performance experience will work on musical  theatre techniques, voice, song study, and movement, while they intensively rehearse for a musical revue that will be performed on the last day of camp. In our dynamic and comprehensive program, participants will have the opportunity to also build scenery, props, and be introduced to all aspects of theatrical production.  This will be a fun and rewarding experience as students work to successfully put up a show in just ten days.

For more information about the program be on the look-out for information in the upcoming Thursday folders or contact Jennifer Lambert, director, at jalambert@fcps.edu.
