Congratulations KP!  We raised over $1400!!

Once again, KP's charitable spirit exceeds expecations!  Thanks to your generosity, we raised over $1400 through spare change donations to help those suffering in Haiti.  In honor of KP parent Dr. Robert Fuller, we are donating the money to the International Medical Corps. Dr Fuller has been in Haiti with the IMC, helping the victims of the earthquake. Many thanks to all those who donated and helped with the collection.

~ Peace Day  ~ September 21, 2009 ~

The King Philip Middle School staff and students participated in an International Peace Day activity called Pinwheels for Peace. Members of the school community dialogued in their Morning Advisor groups about the many facets linked to creating world peace. Writings and images were created on over 900 paper pinwheels over a four day period in response to those conversations. The completed pinwheels will be planted as a "Peace Garden" throughout the school campus to reinforce the importance for peace in our own lives and world community on September 21st. Overall, the goal was to reinforce to the King Philip learning community that anyone can think globally while acting locally.
