Pennekamp Open House - June 2, 2005

 

Pennekamp students, teachers and staff proudly presented the annual open house.  Every classroom was beautifully arranged to show off student efforts.

 

Students were anxious to point out their favorite projects

 

    

and every available inch  of space was covered with student work!

       

Alumni returned to greet their former teachers and students and parents visited not only their current  and former classrooms but their future classrooms as well! 

 

Everyone loved the Artist in Residence displays.  Here are just two of them--Mr. Hugo's "Create a Machine" project and Ms. Radha's "The Trial of the Big Bad Wolf" drama project.  Thank you to the Pennekamp PTA for sponsoring the Artist in Residence program in our classrooms.

 

From dioramas displaying important events in American History to autobiographies, 

 

"My Island" creations and animal reports, 

 

parents, siblings, and friends were awed by what they saw.

 

   

MBUSD Superintendent Dr. Gwen Gross was in attendance and let students know how proud of them she is.

 

Every classroom was filled with families admiring the culmination of 

 

a year's worth of work.

 

Thank you to our Pennekamp students, teachers, staff and administration for your efforts to put on a wonderful Open House.  With schools and students like these, the future is truly bright!
