Final Lost & Found
Well the mountain of personal belongings that is also known as the Burley
Lost & Found has been bagged and boxed and will be donated to a local
community agency that supports migrant workers in our area. In the process,
we came across a number of items that had names on them. Those items have
been left on a table in the hallway going towards the 7th grade. However,
after two weeks they will also be donated. If you know the person listed,
please contact them since they may not receive this e-mail. Thanks!!

arrangement for children with mobility disabilities. By appointment
July-August. $15.00 per session.
Working in pairs and occasional small groups, co-leaders Mary Anna Dunn and
Jeanne-Marie Peterson will help children write for pleasure and for the
pleasure of communicating their ideas with others. We will start with the
child’s interests and talents, following goals set with parents. We are not
a remedial or tutorial program. Our emphasis is on the joy of writing, but
we believe in helping children fully experience the gift of communication by
developing their strengths while addressing areas that hold them back as
writers. We welcome all levels from struggling to advanced writers.
Jeanne-Marie holds an MA in Special Education and is a private instructor
for home schooled children. Mary Anna holds an MA in English and an Ed.D. in
Curriculum and Instruction. Her writing has appeared, or is forthcoming in
Inkwell, The Social Studies, and Educational Leadership.

leisure time. Please remain in the building with while you child is in our
studio. Special thanks to Sycamore House and The Junior League of
