This will be what we are using and refilling for the day and during the potluck. *The office is closed from 9-1 so that ALL of the staff can participate. If you need to ask a question or turn in budgets, etc. That is available from8-9am and 1-3:30pm. *We have tables for everyone. No need to bring one unless you have a special one you want to use. *Please label all potluck with your name so we can get them back to you. Remember your Table Tent for your potluck dish. *Have kiddos wear clothes with pockets to carry their pins to trade. *Please be set up and ready to go by 9:30. We will have muffins and cocoa to share. There will also be apples for hungry kiddos between the stations. Friday March, 28th 2025 9:00-1:00, Arete Campus All Are Welcome Arete staff is on a mission to bring families together. We have been granted some funds to invest in developing the social and emotional intelligence of our students, and we think the best way to do that is by providing them with an opportunity to experience the joy of the school community. The more we know each other, the more we care about each other. The more we care about each other, the more we are there for one another. Navigating the ebbs and flows of life effectively is the goal of SEL. And doing that with people who know you and care about you, makes the journey much brighter. Please join us on our mission to bring Arete families together! Our Vision: An intro VIDEO from Ms. Tomasetti Participation counts as social studies!! Three Ways to Participate Option #1: Do it ALL! (be a festival goer, set up a booth, and bring a potluck dish) Option #2: Bring a Dish! (be a festival goer, and bring a potluck dish) Option #3: Join in the Fun! (be a festival goer only) Main points to know... Family Posters: All participating families are encouraged to make a poster with pictures and artifacts representing their family, which will be displayed throughout the festival. *poster board provided by Arete. Turn into school office between 3/24-3/27 to be set up prior to event "Choose Your Outlet": After our opening gathering, festival-goers will visit family booths and teacher stations, where they will get to learn about the history of those around them, and the activities and traditions they value. Pin trading and raffle prizes: Families will design their own pins which will be traded during "Choose Your Outlet." All festival-goers will be provided with a lanyard to attach their traded pins to. The more pins collected, the more raffle tickets earned for our prize drawing! *blank pins provided by Arete, and prepared by families prior to event Potluck Lunch: We will close the event by breaking bread together, where we can nurture new connections, spend time with good friends. Family Booths: Families who choose to participate will set up a booth displaying an important aspect of their lives. This could be sharing possessions or traditions that have been passed down through the generations. It could also include honoring an important person, sharing something artistic, teaching about a favorite family activity, or presenting on something that contributes to the family's livelihood. *We want everyone to be able to participate. If support is needed with paying for materials to put together a booth, please let us know! We can help. This is Social Studies: Students' contribution to this event counts as social studies lessons. With full participation, you can make this a month-long unit! Link to helpful resources and more details. Click to sign up. We Are Arete: A Family Heritage Festival Please also complete this form.
