Our Arts Department continues to grow this semester, and our students (and teachers) couldn't be happier! Mrs. Roussel just started working with her Middle School dancers. During the first week of class, they learned how to properly warm up, and each student created their own little dance phrase, based on the amount of syllables in their name. Our new Musical Theatre class is also off to a roaring start! The actors - under the instruction of Mrs. Rosney and Mrs. Roussel - have already auditioned for roles in The Pirates of Penzance, Jr., which will be performed this Spring in the Epiphany Performing Arts Center. There is so much talent in this robust class, and we know the show is going to be spectacular. What an exciting time for the dancers, singers, and actors at Epiphany!

Part of the 4th-grade curriculum is learning about the history of North Carolina. As residents of the Colonial Capital of our state, we are surrounded by our early history. Today students came to school dressed in colonial attire, read by candlelight, played colonial games in PE, made candles in Art, learned about drumming in Music, made their own butter, and spent their day as school children would have in the earliest days of our country.

A big Thank You to Hutch Smith, class of 2022, and Eagle Scout candidate for creating and installing our new outdoor amphitheater for the Lower School. The students are already enjoying your handiwork. Thanks also to Landon, Stephen, Parker, John, Kirby, and Nathan for your help and to Garris Evans for donating the materials.

Each grade level at the Lower School has a service partner or service focus that they work on throughout the school year. Kindergarten focuses on community helpers and creates goodie bags and cards for the helpers in New Bern and the surrounding community. Most recently, they sent bags to CarolinaEast. In thanks, they sent us pictures of their staff with their cards and treats with a note saying, "The staff were VERY excited to receive them and LOVED the pictures! The drawings really do brighten up our days." Goodies went to hospitalists and to the COVID units. THANK YOU to all of our health care workers and to ALL of our community helpers!

This afternoon students in grades 3-5 had the opportunity to Zoom live with best-selling author Chris Grabenstein! Over the last few weeks, students have been reading his latest book, The Smartest Kid in the Universe. Mr. Grabenstein first shared a very funny, very engaging presentation about how he became an author--it wasn't easy! He also talked about how he got the idea for his latest book. Students asked perceptive questions, some dressed up as characters from the book, and all enjoyed Tootsie Pops and jellybeans. You'll have to read the book to find out why!
