We have an exciting Japanese Art Presentation planned for ALL FOX MILL students in their regular art class with Mrs. Welles during the week of Feb. 3rd. This is always a great time to come in and volunteer, PLUS learn about Japanese traditions/culture and interact with the kids. There are people needed to present the slideshow and story, manage the slideshow on the computer (non-speaking role), and extra helpers.

JCC (Japanese Culture Committee) meeting this Wednesday morning. We will be discussing Japanese Art week to be held in February for every child in Fox Mill School. It will be in their regularly scheduled Art class with Mrs. Welles. Hope you can join us! 

Instead of our Monthly JCC meeting, please join us for our JCC Social! We are thankful for all of your support, time, energy, and enthusiasm for our many JCC events. Come celebrate our great community! If you are new to the school or just would like an informal way of meeting other Fox mill parents, please join us!
