Musical Performances
Musical Performances
Our school is known for our adorable, creative, and fun-filled musical productions! We hold two performances each school year: a Christmas Program and a year-end Graduation Performance. We work diligently with our students from day one to develop and strengthen speaking skills and confidence, therefore, each student is given a speaking part in our school performances. These performances take place on the stage of Harbor Day School and are a huge hit with the community and families.
Captain of the Week
Captain of the Week
Each student has the chance to be our classroom Captain of the Week during the school year. This is a super exciting week for the special student as well as the student's family and classmates! Each day is specially designed to highlight the uniqueness of the Captain and share their interests, dreams, hobbies, and more with their peers. The Captain of the Week assignments are scheduled as close as possible to the students' birthdays, making this week extra special indeed.
Let's Celebrate!
Let's Celebrate!
Every holiday, big or small, is special in the eyes of a child. We celebrate holidays in class and have a party to go with it! Parents may volunteer to run craft centers, treat tables, and more during these fun events. We also celebrate national "days" such as days of reading, kindness, Dr. Seuss's birthday, and many more. To further introduce and incorporate curricular content, we have a handful of special days specifically tied in to our lessons in class such as hat day, crazy hair day, stuffed animal day, pajama day, and more. Last, students love celebrating their birthday in class!
