Halloween at Miner

11/7/2018

 
On Halloween day, Miner hosted three fun events for our Mighty Bears:
  • Book-o-ween for our early childhood (PreK3/4) students, sponsored by the PreK Parent Committee
  • Monthly VIP event for our K-5 students, sponsored by the PBIS Committee
  • Oktoberfest, a school-wide Halloween party sponsored by the PTO

Book-o-Ween

Book-o-ween was a fun-filled morning for our youngest Bears.  Dressed as their favorite storybook characters, they had a parade, decorated pumpkins, had a glow/dance party, enjoyed festive snacks, and had an all around great time.  So many families came out to join in the fun with their students! The PreK Parent Committee put a lot of hard work into the event, and it was our best yet!  Special thanks go out to Miner's Family Services Coordinator, Ms. Brissett, and PreK Parent Committee co-chairs Jamie Milhous, and Eddie Minor for organizing the event. And the event would not have been such a great success without all our parent volunteers - thank you!

October VIP

Students in K-5 who earned 80% or greater positive Dojo points were invited to an afternoon of fun in the gym, including the bounce castle. Great job to all our Miner Bears for their positive behavior and dedication to learning!

Oktoberfest

Miner's annual Oktoberfest party was another great success! Everyone had an amazing night of dancing, games, bouncing in the castle, painting pumpkins, enjoying delicious food and treats, and participating in a costume contest and "trunk-or-treating." It was an amazing group effort to organize and make happen, led by the co-chairs of the PTO's Family Engagement & Events Committee: Mariana Jones and Ms. Dorsey. Special thanks go out to: DJ Tony Reddz for keeping the kids dancing all night long; author Roman Montague for sharing the sea world adventures of the “Ocean Bowl” characters; Insomnia Cookies for sponsoring our “cake” walk; Dia Johnson and her catering team for the amazing food; all the teachers and staff who participated in trunk-or-treating on the blacktop; and to all the parents who volunteered to assist at the event.  The PTO is so grateful to everyone who participated and hope that everyone had as much fun as our students did!
