What does it mean to be global?


We are starting our new Social Studies Inquiry Unit of "Global Communities". We will be revisiting the book "What Does it Mean to be Global?" written by Rana DiOrio. 

Let's Fly Jiya to Ecuador!

Former student and model global citizen Jiya Mehta presented at the February 28th assembly about
her upcoming Me to We Women's' Empowerment Volunteer trip to Ecuador. As a school, we will be fundraising to help her raise money for her trip. Our goal is to raise $1000 to fly Jiya to Ecuador. 

Members of the spirit committee will coming by daily after lunch to collect donations from students.  The students can then decorate their planes, put their names on them and put them up in the hallway outside of your classroom flying towards the world map at the front of the school.    

The fundraiser will run throughout the month of March. 

Students are asked for donations of $2.00, $5.00 or $10.00. 

Together we can fly Jiya to Ecuador FHPS!
