This year the Alcott Variety Show will showcase on November 20, 2025! This is a change from previous years, where our show was held in the late spring. 

For those of you who may not know, the Alcott School Variety Show is a family-friendly evening that showcases the awesome talents of our Alcott students (and sometimes teachers!) This is meant to be a fun, supportive night, with no competition involved. Talents can be performing an instrument, doing stand-up comedy, performing a skit, dancing, or whatever you can think of! Participation details can be found HERE.

We will meet on Thursday 11/13 at 6:30pm in the Alcott Library (with the option to join via Zoom, but please come in person if you can).  The meeting will kick off with a presentation and Q&A session by Language Arts Specialist (and Alcott parent) Katie Carr on our new literacy curriculum, EL. 

Open to all students who missed picture day or would like to have their photo retaken. To participate in retake day, no sign ups are required, but please let your student(s) teacher know if you would like to have a retake. If your child had a photo taken at picture day, please send in their old photos to turn in unless it's a digital retake.

If any families have questions – please contact the Coffee Pond Customer Service Dept.  // PHONE: 1-800-632-2323 ext "0" // EMAIL: Lifeguards@coffeepond.com

The volunteer sign up is available at the LINK HERE. Thank you to those who are able to volunteer to support the photographers and children.
