SAVE THE DATE: TECHNOLOGY TALK ON NOVEMBER 17

How can we help our children safely use the internet?
What social media is appropriate for our children?
What technology skills are our children learning at school?  How can we
best support this at home?

The SFS Lower School Parents Association invites all parents of Lower
School students to a discussion about technology use at home and school,
featuring SFS Lower School Director of Academic Technology, Jenni
Voorhees, November 17, 7:30-9 PM at the Lower School Meetinghouse. Ms.
Voorhees is a recognized expert on educational technology, digital
citizenship, and online behavior, and has made presentations to parents
and schools from Richmond to Baltimore. For more information, contact
Ira Apfel ([email-masked]) or Susan Maniatis
([email-masked]).

Child care will be provided.  Please contact Pamela Kurland
([email-masked]) if you are interested.

THE BOOK FAIR IS COMING!
Come to the Lower School Book Fair on November 13th at Politics and
Prose. Long a resource and opportunity for parents and faculty to
encourage the joy of reading, proceeds from the event support the LS
Parents Association, which funds a variety of activities for our
community throughout the year. It is a perfect time to do some early
holiday shopping while supporting the local community and our school!

This year's Book Fair is one day only-shop anytime from 9 am through 10
pm. At 10:30 am, we are thrilled to feature a children's book reading by
Lower School librarian Angela Smith. At 3 pm, Lower School parent and
Washington Post columnist Dana Milbank will read from his book, "Tears
of a Clown." (Please note this is not a children's book.)

When you use a Book Fair coupon, available at each cash register that
day, 20 percent of your purchase total will be donated to the LS PA.
Please ask for the coupon at the time of purchase so that your
contributions can be counted!
