The Capay School's Ave of Lights is something we have done for 2 years now and this year we are asking for help. Kathy at the Glenn Co Fairgrounds has offered us a bigger location to decorate and we don't want to say no to advertising our wonderful school, but it's a lot of work! We have attached a picture from last years display to reference, we have a wooden cut out Colt for display every year but we need more. And yes, the other small schools around us have a spot there too.

PTO's Fall Dinner last weekend was such a success! The food was incredible, desserts scrumptious, teacher baskets were so creative, and the numerous donation for the raffles were incredibly generous. The carnival games were so much fun and enjoyed by students and adults alike. When I was finishing up on Friday afternoon, I saw PTO members trickly in and by that evening when I left, the entire cafeteria and the corridor outside the cafeteria was completely set up for Saturday. The members are so efficient and creative. The place looked amazing!! I can't express enough how grateful our school community is to the wonderful PTO members and everyone else who contributed their time and energy to making it an afternoon and evening to remember! Thank you!!

On Monday, November 10th, Capay School had the privilege of honoring local veterans. The assembly began with 8th grade students introducing the vets they interviewed in October and saying a little about them. This was followed by a parent and local veteran, Sean Farley, who was asked questions by students. It was a very fun morning. Our students were so interested in the vets lives, etc. More picutures to follow in a future post.
