4th of July Parade:
I know it's months away, but we'd like to have a Homeschool entry in
the parade based on the founding of America. This will be an
opportunity for your child to research an individual from that time period and
dress up like them. We will be portraying individuals from both the
Loyalist and Patriot side, and helping people (beginning with our own children)
to remember why we celebrate the 4th of July. I've set up a page on the
Utah Families website we will track which individuals have been assigned.
We are sending the information out this early because there are preparations to
be made. We want our students to have plenty of time to learn about their
assigned individual. We will also be building a liberty bell and perhaps
doing other projects through the rest of the school year in preparation for
this event. If you are interested in participating take a look at the website:

If you have questions, or to let us know who your child would like to portray,
contact Melanie Skelton, melskel@gmail.com
or 843-4443.
