Hello Einstein MS Parents -

the
Gala webpage.
We've put together a few videos to highlight some of the programs that the Gala makes possible:
PE,
science, and
music.
Middle School News
Last middle school dance of the year is this Friday (May 25th). Please
sign up
to help staff the food table,
chaperone and general set up and clean up. Come join your kids in the fun.
Middle School parents needed to serve on the Friends of AEA board. Strong middle school
support will be needed to help transition the MS to a new campus. This will be a great opportunity
for middle school parents to help lead the way into a smooth transition and direct the future
relationships of the schools.
The German exchange students will be selling pizza every Wednesday through the end
of the school
year beginning this week May 16th from 12-1 in the lunch arbor to raise money for their trip. A slice of
pizza and juice box is $2. Come out and support the program and have some lunch.
Don't forget to buy your yearbooks (click

and 8th grade families need to pay for the harbor cruise
online here.
Parent volunteers are needed to sit on a panel for the 8th grade Open Passion Projects on
May 30th. See the AEA school website for
more details.
