We will be holding a Community Conversation on school safety on November 11 at 6:00 pm in the UHS cafeteria. In 2013, responding to the lessons learned from Sandy Hook, our community came together for our last Community Conversation on safety. A 27 point plan was adopted and implemented. Recent events (weapons found on campus) and the District's response to them, have generated a lot of conversation throughout the community. Its time to come together again, to review where we are and what else needs to be addressed as we remain ever vigilant about the safety of our children.
RSVP to Kim Van der Mooren [email protected]
Light snacks and refreshments will be served.

This class taught by Maggie Brock is part of Garden Crafts Uncorked! Bring your buddies and favorite wine to enjoy – Mt. Cuba Center provides the rest!

These unique homes invite a variety of species to nest in your yard – bluebirds, chickadees, wrens, purple martins, and even small owls. Start with a dried gourd and embellish it with botanicals such as leaves and twigs, or paint it in natural hues for eye-catching appeal. This is a fun project for those who want to bring new life into their garden.
