Week 13 - October 31st, 2022

Greetings Conway Families,

Our Conway Crew actively works hard to maintain traditions that express the culture of our community. This past week, we welcomed our families to our costume parade. This has been a long running tradition at our school, but it had been three years since our last parade that included our families. This was one of our Red Ribbon week closing activities, make sure to view some pictures here https://conway.eusd.org/o/conway/article/890051. Also on Friday, the classroom door decorating contest winners were announced. Read more about that exciting event here https://conway.eusd.org/o/conway/article/890019.

Bringing culture and enrichment to learning is an equal component to growing EPIC scholars and citizens. This week a few 6th graders experienced their first opera at the San Diego Civic Theater. Mrs. Bohnstedt escorted students to experience view El Último sueño de Frida y Diego. It was a special night to remember for all.

Green Crew takes action this week! These students are working to establish food waste reduction and recycling by conducting their first waste audit. This year our school has partnered with BCK, an environmental organization, empowering our students on their goal for creating a green school and making the world a better place.

Picture Make-up day is this week. If a student is retaking their photo, the original order purchased will be honored and applied to the make-up photo. To purchase photos, please use the following phttps://bit.ly/3VZFUXV .

We are grateful for the opportunity to inspire students to discover their unlimited potential through Excellence, Perseverance, Integrity, and Compassion. Together we are creating an EPIC school. We are in this together and believe, We Are Crew, not passengers.

In Crew,

Principal Meglich
