Annual Events
A number of events take place annually in the Lower School, building a sense of continuity and community among the students. Among them are:
- Stone Soup Day at which every LS student brings a contribution to a pot of Stone Soup which is shared by the whole school at lunch and serves to kick-off the Lower and Middle School community program of providing a monthly lunch at the Plainfield Senior Citizens Center.
- Halloween parade when the children, and many teachers and administrators, don costumes to parade around the school grounds.
- Holiday Concerts in December and Spring Concerts in May in which each grade performs seasonal music for their parents.
- The Nutcracker program performed each December by the Pre-Kindergarten and Kindergarten students for their parents.
- The 100th Day of School Museum with displays of 100 objects, collected and artistically arranged by the first graders.
- Reading Rodeo, which caps a month of daily independent reading by first graders
- The May Reading Challenge for third and fourth graders.
