October Happenings


Family Fun Night
This Friday, October 19th our PTA will sponsor Family Fun Night.  The event takes place from 6:00 – 8:00 pm.  Come as a family and enjoy Story Time, Face Painting, Music & Dancing, Bingo, Pizza, and much more.
  
October is Fire Prevention Month
Students at Stonehedge have had many opportunities to learn about fire safety.  Many thanks to Mrs. Margaret Barbuto, one of our Physical Education teachers as well as our PTA Chair for Health & Education, for organizing Fire Safety activities. Teachers had availability to Fire Safety DVDs, supplemental grade appropriate materials and of course the visit by the Fairmount Fire Department. 

Students in K-2 took part in an interactive presentation led by the fire fighters. Students learned about gear worn and tools used when fighting a fire. They were taught safety procedures that they should follow at home and reviewed procedures utilized here at school. Experiences such as this would not occur without the support from our community. Thank you to the following firefighters for spending the day keeping children at Stonehedge safe:

Captain Matt Schultz
Lieutenant Jake Carlson
Lieutenant David Mazzoni
Fire Fighters - John Abert, Rick Dunlop, Dan Hamilton, Ian Herford, Dan Kogel,  Mike Putnam, Hunter Rogers, Cassidy Tiska, Chris Unz
