Find Your Light Spirit Night at Dos Banderas



We were blessed with a wonderful opportunity to partner with one of our favorite restaurants, Dos Banderas, this week. Our Watson Wildcat family and friends met there and enjoyed a delicious meal which benefitted our Kindergarten Find Your Light Foundation service project. We had a fabulous time and made $307.87, which will be added to our Find Your Light Foundation fund. We can not thank all of our families and friends enough for joining us and helping us with our service project! We are another step closer to our end of year goal and are ever so thankful to Dos Banderas for their support! Working together to help others "Find Their Light"...well, there just isn't anything better than that! Here are some sweet pictures from our fun night, as well as a video of our Kindergartners presenting our Find Your Light Spirit Night on the morning announcements. We hope you enjoy them!

Music Around the World--A Christmas Edition


I was blessed this semester to be able to host our fifth year of Music Around the World with our Kindergarten-Second Grade students here at Watson MST. Together with thirty-one of our talented students, we learned about the different songs and instruments that countries around our world have to offer. After enjoying our Music Around the World Club together for six weeks, we had the opportunity to present everything that we had learned to our parents and school family at our Music Around the World Celebration Night--A Christmas Edition. I was so very proud of our boys and girls! They did a fantastic job! I want to thank our school family, our friends, and our wonderful Watson families for joining us in this celebration by attending our performance and showing us all such great love and support. In conjunction with our Music Around the World Club, we are participating in a service project benefiting Josh Groban's Find You Light Foundation. Working together for a special cause, my Kindergarten class and my Music Around the World Club, are selling "Cookies for Quarters" at all of our music events here at Watson this year. My Music Around the World Club also sold dvds of their performance to help raise funds for this important service project. I am excited to see how much we can raise this year to help others in need. Thank you for allowing me the great privilege of working with your wonderful students and celebrating the universal language of music together. I had a wonderful time, and I look forward to watching our students as they continue to "Find Their Light" and "Shine On"! Here is a link to our slide show and some pictures from this exciting event.
