Thursday's Assembly

Wowza!  Everyone did such a fabulous job yesterday at our first assembly! 

We were thrilled to see how well-behaved Memorial students were while we honored those who helped to get the new school built.   We were even more excited about everyone's hard work and dedication to learn 2 new songs in only 2 music classes.  Both the Memorial School Song and Put Your Hand in My Hand were performed beautifully!

Thanks to all of the students who did their best for our first performance!

First week!

We just wanted to let everyone know that we had an amazing first week in music!  The students met Ms. Maxwell, who is currently subbing for Mrs. Niu while she is on maternity leave (Mrs. Niu gave birth on September 7th- congratulations!).

We have also been working on songs that we will sing at the Dedication of the New Memorial School next Thursday.  Here are the lyrics so you can practice!

Memorial School Song:
We are happy and proud
here at Memorial School.
Some of us were born in town,
others born around the world.
But we find our "True North" at Memorial School!
Teachers, students, faculty and
all our families love it at Memorial School!

Put Your Hand in My Hand:
Put your hand in my hand, you can be my friend.
We don't have to look the same to let our voices blend.
We can trust each other, we can try again
If you put your hand in my hand, I will be your friend.
If you put your hand in my hand, I will be your friend.
