Eagle Fund Online Auction- March 11-17th |
|
|
The stakes are high this week for the Eagle Fund’s biggest fundraiser of the year, Greenbrook Hits The Jackpot. I’m looking forward to seeing many of you at the Gala on Friday. The event raises funds for some of the most critical programs and services for Greenbrook including our classroom paras, reading and math intervention, music, library, art, SEL rainbow room para, and technology.
The fun doesn’t end when the doors close on the Gala though, because our Auction Committee has assembled some fantastic packages for our Online Auction that will run March 11-17. Some unique items to bid on include parent hosted parties, winery tour/tastings, teacher for a day packages, and more. Even though you can’t start bidding until the 11th, you can sign up today at: https://greenbrook.schoolauction.net/auction2024 and get a sneak peek at some of the items in the catalog! Get ready to place your bids because everyone wins when we bet on Greenbrook! Want to contribute to the fun? The Auction Committee is still seeking additional parent-hosted parties. Grab some friends and reach out to greenbrookgala@gmail.com with your party plan ideas.

Student Highlight: Celebrating our Eagles! |
|
|
|
We love to celebrate our students! Third graders: Ayush, Ishani, Saavya and Vihaan had a chance to participate in the Regionals of Destination Imagination last month. They performed really well and exceeded the expectations by receiving 6th place in the Technical challenge in their category( 3rd to 5th graders). They chose the challenge, procured items for it, made various modules for it, decorated it, made costumes for themselves, practiced and performed a skit and a song. This also qualifies them to participate in the State level of the tournament which happens next month in Fresno. Go Ayush, Ishani, Saavya, and Vihaan! |

From the District: MARCH RESOLUTIONS
Women’s History Month - March

Women of every race and ethnic background have contributed to our country’s triumphs and accomplishments in countless ways and continue to play critical roles in the economic, cultural, and social spheres of our nation. Women of diverse backgrounds have served as leaders at the forefront of every major progressive social change movement and although their efforts have been overlooked or undervalued in the past, they hold an important place in the body of American and world history.
Arts Education Month- March
San Ramon Valley Unified School District recognizes the month of March as Arts Education Month. Education in the arts is an indispensable part of basic education for all students to enhance their understanding of the world and to develop to their full potential. Instruction in the arts helps children foster creativity, self-expression, and discipline. The arts are also important repositories of culture and experience. SRVUSD is proud to focus on the value of arts education, especially during the month of March.
Prescription Drug Abuse Awareness Month- March
San Ramon Valley Unified School District recognizes the month of March as Prescription Drug Abuse Awareness Month. Prescription medications such as stimulants, sedatives, and opioids hold powerful medical benefits however can have serious consequences and additive risks.
