Dear Nicasio Families,

I am excited for our Spirit Day tomorrow (Friday)…. Olympics/Sports Day. Students are encouraged to dress in national colors to support their favorite Olympic country, or in a jersey or unif0rm to support their favorite sport or team. At the assembly last week our student council representatives shared ideas for showing school spirit. Don’t have a jersey? How about dressing for skiing or horseback riding? I hope all students will participate. Tomorrow afternoon we will have a school-wide mini-Olympics, which will include the luge, ski jump, hockey and more! Below is a photo of Adrian M. preparing for the skeleton. Thank you, Coach Jamie, for planning this fun event for our students.

Last Friday our middle school students traveled to Bolinas-Stinson School for a screening of the documentary film Angst. The film features kids and young adults who suffer, or have suffered, from anxiety and what they’ve learned about it. I recommend it! To learn more, visit https://angstmovie.com

Finally, on Tuesday we celebrated our 100th day of school. Below is a photo of our first and second graders with their wreaths compiled of 100 things. I am grateful to spend my days with your children in Nicasio!

All the best, Barbara
