Chapter 16 Reconstruction and the New South

The cinematography is wonderful, the sets lavish, the costumes incredible, the musical score sweeping, and the film epic in every way. Based on Margaret Mitchell's best selling novel, this classic 1939 film follows Scarlett O'Hara (played by Vivien Leigh), the daughter of a wealthy plantation owner, who's quality of life is swept away by the winds of the American Civil War. Her love life is equally as turbulent, thanks to Ashley Wilkes (Leslie Howard), and Rhett Butler (Clark Gable). Rated G

Dear Parent,


Thank you for the delicious dish you helped your child make (purchased) for the Diversity Heritage Day celebration. It was a huge success! Thank you so much for your contribution. This week is ISAT testing week and there will be no homework or study hall. We are off to the Oak Park Lake theatre, Friday March 5, 2010 to view the movie Alice in Wonderland. What a great way to end the ISAT testing week! Please make sure you send the permission slip and the $8.00 cost in a sealed envelope with your child's name on it by March 3, 2010. Below is a message from the school nurse regarding the walking field trip Friday March 5, 2010.
Ms. Franklin


Asthmatics need to be extra careful walking in the cold.
Also, especially if the temperature is below freezing with or without wind chill factor.....I have noticed at dismissal at the bus area that in general many of the students are not wearing appropriate outer wear, some walking, some on the bus. This is just my suggestion, that they are given a reminder the day before to bring coat/gloves or consequence is remaining behind at school. If they do not have proper cover the day of the FT I would have a parent give verbal permission over phone that they are aware of the outside temperature and that their child does not have coat/gloves etc & can walk the distance without appropriate clothing under your supervision for weather conditions.
