We have had a wonderful month at Moss Park! We celebrated National School Counseling Week. We have been blessed this year with a wonderful new guidance counselor, Ms. Miller.  She is new to us and an amazing asset as we help our students navigate social and emotional growth. Thank you for all you do, Ms. Miller!

Recently, several of our 5th graders had the opportunity to participate in the OCPS All-County Elementary Concert. This concert highlighted students performing in orchestra, recorder, Orff, and chorus. Congratulations to Eliana, Francheska, Maya, Cristian, Tatyana and James – their hard work paid off and they were able to represent Moss Park well! 

In art class, our students were busy making Valentine’s cards for the residents of Watercrest of Lake Nona nursing home. The residents really enjoyed receiving the cards and the visit from our Art Club students.  

Our Moss Park Eagles participated in the Healthy Heart Challenge, raising more than $5,600 for the American Heart Association and having an amazing time jumping and learning about exercise and healthy choices!

Word is out! Our Annual Players production is well underway, and we cannot wait to see all the talent in Madagascar Jr. presented by the Moss Park Players on March 7 and 8 at 6:30 p.m. and

Our students’ involvement in the arts constantly reminds me of the quote by Phylicia Rashad: “Before a child talks, they sing. Before they write, they draw. As soon as they stand, they dance. Art is fundamental to human expression.” Thank you, parents, for supporting our Fine Arts programs and encouraging your children to be involved!
