LOWER SCHOOL NEWS
August 27, 2004

One of the wonderful results of the SFCS Parent/Teacher Fellowship (PTF) fundraising efforts of last year and a generous contribution from the Kiwanis Club of Greenville-Eastside was the purchase of the SEEDS Program written by Dr. Mildred Young. Teachers have already received training in this program that promotes thinking skills through the use of children’s literature. Parents are needed to lead these exciting sessions, however advanced training is required. Don’t miss this exciting opportunity to be involved in your child’s classroom or any other SFCS classroom! Plan to attend a SEEDS training session on Wednesday, September 1, at 8:30 a.m. in Room 103B on the Lower School Campus.
