Everyone is Different. Everyone Belongs.
Winter Peace Concert All students in grades JK-4 performed in the annual Haggerty Peace Day concert, along with Haggerty Chorus, optional for grades 3-5. Ms. Irvin-Kent led kindergarten, first, and second grade in their performances. Our new music teacher, Mr. Mooney, led a combined third and fourth grade in several beautiful pieces about peace, ending with With Two Wings. Haggerty Chorus closed the concert with gospel piece “Let There Be Peace.” Thanks to a few parents for accompanying on their instruments: Jenny Talbot on violin and Ramesh Kumar on darbuka. What a way to be a model for the kids! We hope everyone takes the messages in our music and creates peace in the world.

Upcoming Events
Peace Across the School First and Fifth Grade: Our first graders in Ms. Yeh and fifth graders in Ms. Faucher's class are reading buddies and together they made made a giant peace fingerprint poster and peace doves. Mr. Bob: Students working with Mr Bob practiced followed multi step directions, tracing around a stencil, cutting and assembling as they created their peace doves. Kindergarten: Ms. Golding's K classroom spelled PEACE with their bodies.
Art Corner By: Laurie Gaines We created Peace Posters and symbols of peace. Students wrote poems, created their own symbols, made paper doves, and two doves with feathers that represent how they create peace.
December was the Month of Peace! We celebrated peace in many ways around school for the month of December! One way we did this was by saying the Haggerty Peace Pledge, along with the Pledge of Allegiance everyday. Here is the Haggerty Peace Pledge: I will be a Peacemaker today and everyday. With my actions, In my thoughts, In everything I say! We also made the Haggerty Peace Dove! This collaborative art project, inspired by Picasso's Peace Dove from 1949, has been completed by the Haggerty school community over the course of a year and a half. Last year, we began collecting bottle caps which were sorted by color by K classrooms during art. This fall, 5th graders painted the dove background. At the International Potluck in October, we invited families to add bottle caps to our mural, which we continued in art class the following week. All students and staff were invited to add a cap!
Coaches Corner By Suzanne Russell, ELA Coach Based on a strong recommendation from Maggie Benati, 4th grader, several teachers and students recently read Wishtree. This book perfectly matched our Peace Theme as well as our school’s inclusive philosophy and practices. Wishtree by Katherine Applegate, is told from the perspective of a neighborhood oak tree named Red. Red, has seen a lot of life. When a new family moves to the neighborhood not everyone is welcoming, and Red's experience as a wish tree is more important than ever. Wishtree is a beautiful story that teaches valuable life lessons about prejudice, friendship, acceptance, and how one or two people really can make a difference.
Library Corner By: Sarah Novogrodsky
More Peace! Ms. Luizzi's students read Can You Say Peace? And said Peace in their own languages! Ms. Fav's first graders reflected on what Peace is...
