Experience The Wizard of Oz at Proctor!

Wizard-of-Oz-RSC-and-MUNI1-541x346

Join us on Friday, March 18th, for a performance of The Wizard of Oz starring fine young actors from the 3rd through 6th grade Proctor classes.

The evening performance will begin in the multi-purpose room at 7:00pm. There are no tickets/fees for entry (but donations will be accepted) so get in line early as it will be a packed house and we must keep all of the aisles clear for the performance.

Flowers and baked goods will be sold before the show and during intermission out on the blacktop. The only saved seats will be the front row seats which were raffled off and won by these families: Fisher Family, Allen Family, Brumbaugh Family and Waterman Family.

The only other option for viewing are the two daytime performances at 8:30am (primary) and 12:30pm (upper grades), if room allows. Visitors will need to sit behind students as classes and teachers are seated first during the daytime performances.

Hope to see you there!

This week at Proctor

2/1 – Pennies for Patients:

Starting today, Proctor Terrace Elementary School is participating in the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s (LLS) Pennies for Patients program; a service-learning program that gives students the unique experience of working together to help raise awareness and funds in honor of thousands of children and adults fighting against blood cancers!  We are asking that everyone (students,faculty, parents, alumni, etc.) at Proctor Terrace Elementary School join in this effort of raising awareness and collecting funds to benefit the mission of LLS: to find cures for blood cancers and to improve the quality of life for patient and their families.

WE NEED YOUR HELP!

Every 3 minutes someone is diagnosed with a blood cancer and every 10 minutes someone loses their battle. Thanks to the support of people like you, doctors are getting closer to finding a cure every day!  In the 1960’s the 5-year survival rate for children under the age of 20 with ALL (the most common form of leukemia) went from a mere 3% to nearly 95% today!  Your support is critical to help us find a cure and I hope you will join us in the fight against blood
cancers!!!

Thank you so much for supporting LLS and Proctor Terrace Elementary School’s participation in the Pennies program! Together we can reach our goal of $2016! For more information on Pennies for Patients or other LLS Student Series Programs, please visit: www.studentseries.org/gba.

Topics will include understanding gifted intensities, meeting social/emotional needs, peer relationships, isolation, perfectionism, procrastination, motivation, underachievement, self-regulation, executive function skills, depression, twice exceptional children (gifted plus other issues), stress, idealism, frustration tolerance, advocacy, imposter syndrome, and nurturing ourselves too!
