Teachers and Staff Appreciation Luncheon 2021

Dear Bigelow parents,

We wanted to send a sincere thank you for your contributions towards making Thursday’s Teacher and Staff Appreciation Luncheon a success. We were hoping we would be able to offer them a beautiful and bountiful dessert table and WE DID! There was so much to choose from and a wonderful variety. In addition, the decor items all worked perfectly to inject a bit of springtime hopefulness into the day.
What added even more to the fun was that Bigelow had “pajama day”, so all the teachers were in comfy PJs and robes!
Thank you again for your contributions!!
Best,
Susan St. Pierre, Karen Yee, and Charlene Gillespie

FEBRUARY 17th, from 6:30 pm – 7:30 pm

BLACK HISTORY MONTH CELEBRATION with Dan and Claudia Zane

Dan and Claudia perform songs in folk tradition, with a focus on community, hope, and light.  They plant the seeds for families to have discussions about race, and their music introduces kids to important leaders like John Lewis.   They focus on progress and inclusion and all of their concerts sensory-friendly.
When a national state of emergency was declared in March 2020, Dan and Claudia started their Social Isolation Song Series. For 200 days, to stay connected and uplift others, they performed a different song every day. This series of videos is in the Library of Congress.
Dan and Claudia released an award-winning songbook entitled Dan Zanes’ House Party: A Family Roots Music Treasury in 2018.  In 2017 they were commissioned by the Kennedy Center commissioned Claudia and Dan to create a theater piece for young audiences which was called Night Train 57: A Sensory Friendly Comic Folk Opera.
