Posters!
Our beautiful Autism Awareness posters are hanging in the front hall and each day the kids are able to admire the pictures and we hear things like "Hey that's the boy from the picture!". We can't thank Mrs. Lacey Petersen enough for donating her time and talent to make these posters possible, please check out her website at http://www.photosbylacey.com/ . Check out our superstars :)

Autism Awareness!
First of all Happy Autism Awareness Month!! I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend and was able to enjoy the beautiful weather! I wanted to take the opportunity to thank Chrissy Gemmill for organizing an Art Auction to benefit our program. Chrissy we are all so appreciative of your support for Challenges! If you have the time stop by "The Muse" in downtown Frederick to see the beautiful auction display.
Our 3rd Annual "CMES Autism Awareness Week" will be held Monday April 28th - Friday May 2nd. We are planning to showcase our students skills through videos during our school's morning announcements. We will have "Autism Awarenss" posters displayed throughout the school. The general education students will attend assemblies to help them learn more about interacting with their friends who have autism. The general education students will also be invited to participate in a writing contest where they can write about helping their friends who have Autism. You will all be invited to our "Light It Up Blue Night" on Thursday May 1st, so mark your calendars! Also if you're in school please check out the cafeteria bulletin boards that are featuring Autism Awareness information, a big thank you to Katie Staines and Chrissy Gemmill for designing these bulletin boards! More information about our Autism Awareness Week will be sent home after break!
The boys have enjoyed our Spring unit, especially planting and caring for their sunflowers! This week and after break we'll be learning about baby animals that are born in the springtime. Thanks for checking in...we're looking forward to a great couple of days before break!
