ULTRAZONE LASER TAG FAMILY NIGHT www.zonehead.com
Wow, what a great evening! Ultrazone was packed with Sherman Oaks kids and parents Monday night. Each round of lasertag ended with each team coming out into the lobby, chanting for their team color, awaiting final tabulation of scores: "Red, Red, Red...!!!"; "Blue, Blue, Blue...!!!"; "Yellow, Yellow, Yellow...!!!"
The lasertag was loved by the players, and the great deal was loved by the parents! Many players played 7 rounds or more, making each 20-minute round only around 2 dollars!!
Thank you to Ultrazone for hosting such a fun event, and for being so generous in donating to our SOPA!
Almost ALL of the night's proceeds were given to our school!
Thank you to Ann Mangini for organizing and putting on this great event, and to
her team of parents who worked the ticket and yummy pizza, drinks, and desert table all night! |

TIGER TRACK TEAM AT DISTRICT MEET!
Our Tigers ran and jumped like champions, Saturday! Everyone competed their hearts out, and it was great fun to cheer them on. And on top of the fun they had in their events, there were many first, second, and third place finishes by our Tigers in their heats and races throughout the day -- congratulations! Great job out there, everyone!
Go Tigers!! |

FINAL SOPA MEETING & ELECTIONS!
Thank you to our devoted SOPA Board this school year -- your dedicated work and tireless energy for the school and children are awe inspiring.
Welcome to the Board voted-in on Tuesday night! Thank you to all who came out to the last SOPA Meeting of the year and voted for next year's SOPA Board of Directors -- during a close Lakers game, nonetheless!
A great group of parents and their children filled up the library, voting for their Parent Association representatives, cheered for Volunteer of the Year Rachel Mackey, applauded the Teacher Appreciation team, got excited about the Ultrazone Lasertag event, and marveled at everything this school community has accomplished and enjoyed this year in a Year-In-Review recap -- and wow, what a list! Quite a year. Despite all the bad budget news around the state, it's a great time to be at Sherman Oaks Elementary, thanks to the dedicated staff and families at the school.
Finally, once votes were tallied (THANK YOU, ladies!), we welcomed in the new Board for the 2009-10 school year:
Jody Bradley, Patty Puskar, Ingrid Zelinger, Dave Riddell, Audrey Santos, Andy Berenson, Debbie Cabanday, Amy Cross, and Don Lukenbill, who all look forward to working closely with Marianna Rodriguez and Vanessa Raderman who also stepped up to offer their efforts on the board level.
Thank you all! We look forward to making 2009-10 the best year yet! |

SPRING SING!
What great performances by all our children!
The Spring performance highlighted beautiful, patriotic songs -- each grade level singing traditional songs we know and love, and a new, previously-unheard song.
Smiles, applause, and cheers exploded like fireworks!
Great job, everybody, and thank you to Mrs. R for all her tremendous work with our children! |

TEACHER APPRECIATION LUNCHEON
An amazing Fiesta said "Thank You" to all our teachers, administration, and staff Monday after school.
No staff is better, and no one shows our appreciation better than our team of parents led by Linda Bradley, who put on another incredible event, including a delicious volunteer-served buffet, professional massages, fun Fiesta ambience and dazzling decor, a free raffle, and moving presentations for our beloved staff members who we will dearly miss next year.
We love you all -- thank you for all your dedication and devotion for our children. |

SPIRIT WEEK A FUN WEEK FOR ALL!
Last week, the Student Council organized Spirit Week for everyone at Sherman Oaks Elementary. Students, teachers, and staff dressed up according to the daily theme, and fun was had by all. Monday through Friday, the themes were Collegiate Day, 70's Flower Power, Twin Day, Super Hero Day, and Crazy Clothes Day, respectively. What a great way to begin closing (or 'clothing') out the year! |
