MIDTERM REPORTS – Midterm reports
were issued last Friday, November 22. These should be signed by parents and
returned to the teacher as soon as possible. If you would like a conference and
one was not requested by the teacher, please call the school to set up an
appointment.
MINI CHRISTAMS BAZAAR –
Our school DPTO is organizing an early shopping opportunity for our families on December
5 and 6. The event will last all school day long! Come and support our DPTO
and take advantage of the great items that will be on sale at terrific
prices!!!!
SONGFEST –
In order to avoid the late afternoon and early evening traffic congestion, the
School’s annual Songfest will be heldon Friday, December 13 at 1:30 p.m. Parents
are welcome to come and have lunch with our students before the performances.
There will be a sale of food, baked goods and drinks.
PREPARATION FOR SONG FEST - In preparation for our Songfest, we are asking
parents who have spare Christmas decorations which they would like to share
with us for the stage presentation taking place on December.13, to please send
them to your child's homeroom teacher next week.We will take good care of them and
return them by Monday, December 16. Anticipated thanks for your unconditional
support in all of our school activities.
CHRISTMAS GIVING TREE:
Nuestro Pequeños Hermanos (NPH) is an international organization that takes in
abandoned and orphaned children, providing a home and education. Here in
Honduras, the NPH organization provides for over 500 children in a large ranch
near La Venta and home in Tegucigalpa for severely handicapped
children. While many children at the ranch have aunts, uncles, or grandparents
that come to visit them and can provide some Christmas gifts, some children at
a ranch have no family to visit. It is these children for whom we would
like to provide this Christmas. On the second floor of the
secondary building, an NPH Giving Tree will be set up. Choose a
paper tree that has a child’s information about his/her size for shoes or
socks. Purchase the new item and return it to Mrs. Agurcia’s Room (Rm. 7)
by Tuesday, December 10, with the tree tag taped to it. As well, there
are tree tags for basic food items that will be donated to the orphanage.
Cash donations will also be accepted to provide shoes and socks for children
whose tags were not selected. Thank you for giving this Christmas!
If more information about NPH’s work in Honduras, please visit

FUNDACION ABRIGO -
Discovery School, in solidarity with FUNDACION ABRIGO ( A foundation that
provides lodging for families from outside Tegucigalpa who bring patients to
Hospital Escuela), is asking our school community’s collaboration. If you would
like to participate and help this organization, please send a donation of 1
gallon of disinfectant per family by Friday, December 6. Your
contribution will be greatly appreciated!
For Secondary Only:

Please remember that Science Fair will be held on Friday, December 6th.
That day, all 7th, 8th, 9th, and 10A students will be involved in the fair
during 3rd and 4th periods. First period will proceed as normal and 1/2 of 2nd
period will be used to set up the fair on the second floor of the secondary building.
As well, students with top projects will be asked to present their project to a
visiting judge that afternoon in the library (meaning the library will not be
available for classes that afternoon). Students from other classes will
be invited to visit the fair in the following schedule: 6A, 6B, 10B, 11,
