What do you get when you bring 4th and 5th Graders to sing holiday songs? The radiant, sweet voices filling the air! Dater's Winter Wonderland Concert was a success! Mr. Bogert and Mr. Jacobsen worked for months preparing these students for spectacular show. Bravo!
Dater's Ambassadors making the final hot coco kits for delivery! They worked as a team to make Dater's first fundraiser a success!
In Senora King's Spanish class, the 4th Grade students learned about a popular New Year's Eve tradition popular in Spain and some other Latin American countries. It's called "Las Doce Uvas." Friends and families gather together on the last night of the year in front of the television, each with a plate of 12 grapes. As the clock strikes twelve, they eat one grape at a time, making a New Year's wish for each grape. If they can make it through all 12 grapes and keep up with the clock, they will have good luck in the coming year. If they fall behind, superstition says that some bad luck might be in store! Here are some of our 4th Graders in action!

Dater students enjoyed an amazing author visit today. It was on Google Meet, but it felt like Dan Gutman was there in the gym with us! Dan Gutman spoke about his writing process, his determination and perseverance when he received many rejection letters, and he even read us the first chapter of an unreleased book. When we got back to the ITC, Dan Gutman books were flying off the shelves! Dater students ❤️ reading and ❤️ meeting influential authors!
