At this year’s Living Wax Museum Andy was Bob Ross. He was so excited to be Bob Ross for the event. He worked very hard on his presentation as well as his report for the assignment. When we learned that he would be Bob Ross he had us take care of getting him a special wig and beard as well as a little stuffed squirrel to act as PeaPod, Bob Ross’s rescued pet squirrel.
Andy also worked on a painting to display. I picked up a special desktop easel for him to use to display his painting and he is very excited to keep using it to paint more and more.
At the end of the event we took a group photo and Andy was in the bathroom. When he came out everyone was shouting for Bob Ross and he came tearing over to the group with his giant wig bouncing like crazy.
During Catholic Schools Week the kids were given the assignment of writing what they think SMSH is all about. SMSH or rather, Saint Mary-Sacred Heart School, is where the kids go and where Allison works. Both kids wrote their thoughts on what makes the school special. They both had some great answers and I wanted to keep a record of that.
Andy wrote: “SMSH is important to me because the students and staff are kind and respectful. We have specials which are very fun. SMSH provides help to those in need. Here at SMSH we have tag days where the money goes to those in need , as well as food drives, and fund raisers. These are the reasons why SMSH is important to me.”
Eva wrote: “Everyone at SMSH is very welcoming and kind. Students and faculty always make new students welcome and appreciated. At SMSH everyone is equal and teachers are always ready to give students the assistance they need to be successful. All of the students find ways to be kind and inclusive to others. At SMSH everyone is welcomed into the Saints community.”
