This Week's C'port Guest Writer:
Our Friday Art Teacher Yuliya Goncharov

The sun is starting to shine a little warmer, and it’s time to switch out our snow boots and parkas for raincoats and galoshes! The art room is a-buzz with a plethora of exciting projects. We are drawing, painting, collaging, and sculpting this month and we could use your help gathering some recyclables for our projects. Hear more >>

Safe Routes to School
Do you want your children to be able to walk or bike to school safely? Do you want to save time and money by using your car less frequently? The City of Cambridge is developing a Safe Routes to School program to support and encourage students who would like to walk or bike to school. Help us learn your thoughts about children walking and biking to school in Cambridge by completing our survey. It will take about five minutes, and we ask that you complete a survey for each of your children. Please fill out this survey by April 30th >>
