Only 2.5 Weeks Left to Reach Our Fun Run Goal!

We are over halfway to reaching our goal with 2.5 weeks left to donate! There are only two popsicle party weeks left to win your child's classroom a party. Your Fun Run donations will be used to create a student hardship fund, ensuring that all Panthers have access to shopping at the book fair, field trips, and uniforms. Funds will also go to the purchase of a color printer and will bring unique arts experiences and assemblies to our school. Click here to donate today! You can also donate via cash or check by sending your donation directly to school!

Paideia Seminar Wrap Up

We wrapped up our first school-wide seminar last week. In this seminar, classes read the story, The Me I Choose to Be by Natasha Anastasia Tarpley and discussed the ideas and values of identity, empowerment, and self-worth. Students answered the question "Who do you choose to be?" for the post seminar activity. Ask your child about this exciting and engaging learning experience.

So Long, Summer! Bash at Richland Park

Join our neighborhood friends on Sunday, September 25 from 1-4pm for food, fun, and a supply drive to benefit Sylvan Park and Park Avenue schools!

James Bowling's Brass Band Bazaar Returns September 24

It's back! Mark your calendars for Saturday, September 24, 2022, for the return of James Bowling's Brass Band Bazaar in the heart of Sylvan Park. This FREE neighborhood festival recalls the founding of Sylvan Park, circa 1900, when a brass band and cannon fire heralded the establishment of what was then Nashville's newest neighborhood. The event is named in honor of Sylvan Park's original founder, James Bowling.

Come and join us from 10a.m.-5p.m. at 45th Ave. and Murphy Rd. for music, food, local artisans, and fun for the whole family. More info: brassbandbazaar.com
