Crossroads Public School
Special to The Lake Report
What do you do when you can’t go away for March Break at Crossroads Public School? You plan the best (and first) week-long Great Coyote Staycation, ever!
Fun-filled days of curriculum-based, school-wide, COVID-19 friendly lessons, activities, virtual field trips, theme days, delicious snacks, contests and creative costumes had these Coyotes howling in the hallways.
Beach Day (because it’s never too cold for flip-flops), Staycation Day (because we all miss our pajamas), Rainbow Day (because together we’re stronger and magical), Kindness Day (because We Choose Kindness @ Crossroads), and Coyote Spirit Day (because #workhardbekind #havefun @CrossroadsPS) were all huge successes.
To finish the week and to include our entire Crossroads community in the week, we hosted our first-ever (and definitely not our last), online Coyote Family Couch Kahoot Trivia Night!
In all, 112 families and dozens of staff members and their families joined together virtually to play for awesome prizes. There were board games, chocolate, gift certificates from the Sandtrap, Bricks & Barley, and Silks, gift certificates for Preserve My Pictures, and the grand prize of a one-week registration for SUPNiagara’s kids’ paddle boarding camp. All this was made possible by generous donations from local businesses and the school council.
It truly was a Great Coyote Staycation bringing all the students, staff and family members of the Crossroads family, together.
