Kicking June Off WIth A Bang!

The bright lights of Broadway were shining bright on Tuesday, as our wonderfully talented Dobson students sang and danced their way through 100 years of Broadway History. From George M. Cohan to songs from Grease and Frozen, our students enchanted both their peers and their parents!  For those of you who were not able to see this performance in person... we hope to dazzle your ears with a recording of our afternoon performance!

Then on Wednesday, 19 of our students traveled to our School District Building to attend an end of the year ceremony for their work with the Philly Ad Club this year.  We have been fortunate enough to welcome five advertising and marketing professionals into our school once a month.  This year, our culminating project was the creation of a commercial/public service announcement that not only featured our school, but a positive message for our students and the community.  Working with Mr. Scott, Mr. Mike, Ms. Denise, Ms. Lauren and Mr. Mike, our students worked hard to write the script, determining their target audience, rehearsals, and finally filming with a professional crew form PHL17.  We can't wait to share it with you!  Click here to watch our James Dobson School Public Service Announcement. 



 This year, our 7th grade students have worked with Ms. Turner and Healthy NewsWorks to create our school newspaper the"Fit Fin".  Check out some of our 7th graders that have been featured in a Healthy NewsWorks' video for this year.  Click here to watch!

Finally, no one can rain on our Dobson Olympic Parade!!  Our students competed with grace and speed on Friday afternoon, while enjoying an absolutely beautiful afternoon outside.  Both the Red and the Blue teams showed their amazing athletic talent and good sportsmanship as they took turns leading the competition. Pictures will be posted this week! If you attended, please share your photos with us on Instagram @dobsonschool645.
