If so, do you have a spare moment or two to contribute your expertise to the Fern school community? The Fern STEM Committee is trying to help a teacher locate an experienced parent or community member in these areas: 1) In preparation for the Grade 7 & 8 Musical this spring, a teacher is looking for someone to spend one or two 30-minute lunch or after school periods going over some of the more advanced light board functions. 2) Having sorted through a collection of old cameras and camcorders at the school, the teacher is looking for someone knowledgeable to spend one lunch or after school period looking at a few items they are unsure about to determine if they are still usable. If you think you can help, please contact the Fern STEM Committee at fernstemcommittee@gmail.com and we will connect you with the teacher.

At long last, I was able (with MUCH help!) to pull together a Ward 7 Trustee Newsletter. Please click here for the February Newsletter. Sign up for the Ward 7 Newsletter Sign up for Ward 7 Facebook Regards, Trustee Robin Pilkey
