Attention CRS Alumni: Let us know a favorite CRS art project or assembly memory! CRS was?recently?visited by Norberto Fabian Xuana from The Dancing Chickens of Ventura Fabian: The Visiting Mexican Artists Program. Students experienced a multicultural, bilingual arts?presentation?designed to share and celebrate the?craft of Oaxacan wood carving. Norberto performed a live wood carving at CRS! After, students in Grades 1 and 2 got to work with Norberto in the art room to create their own painted chickens. They learned three painting techniques: sponge, airbrush effect, and dots. Norberto discussed the importance of practice to control the tools with a “combination of mind, heart, and hands.” The Annual Found allows CRS to bring in guests like Norberto so that students can experience different cultures and learn through hands-on projects. Their work is currently on display in the Community Building!?#broughttoyoubytheannualfund Make a gift to the Annual Fund here: https://lnkd.in/ef9rg-iM

?????? ???????????? ?????? ???????? ???? ?????????? ???????? ???? ???????????? ?????????? ???????????? ?? ???????????? ???????? ???????? ??????????????????, ???????? ???? ???????????? Dear Charles River School Community, It is with deep sadness that I share the news that Cathy Gately, Charles River School’s ninth Head of School, passed away peacefully last week surrounded by loved ones including her wife Pattie Handloss. Cathy first joined the CRS community in 1993. She served as Head at CRS for 21 years, saying at the time of her departure in 2014, “I leave with a heart full of love and gratitude for the special opportunity to lead this outstanding school and community.” “Cathy believed wholeheartedly in the school’s mission and made sure that CRS had a top-notch faculty with the tools they needed to meet the needs of students across grade levels,” said Associate Head of School Elizabeth Clayton, who was hired by Cathy in 2007 and worked closely with her for seven years. “She championed professional development opportunities for teachers and loved being in classrooms with kids, relishing any opportunity to return to her roots as a math teacher.” Charles River School will host a reception for Cathy’s family and friends at 3:30pm on Tuesday, July 16 on campus. All CRS community members are invited and welcome to attend. To read Gabe's full letter and learn more about Cathy's tremendous contributions to Charles River School, visit https://lnkd.in/ebZhWQJs
