Winter Sports at Cornwall School!   I have posted about our skating program and about the opportunities for snowshoeing at Cornwall School. This seems like a good time to include a post about the incredible cross country ski school program offered by Rikert Nordic Center. Long time fifth grade teacher, Paul Kaplan, (now retired and skiing the big hills in Gunnison, CO) created a program at school in conjunction with Rikert. Paul took those fifth graders on weekly treks averaging between 8 and 10 opportunities on snow. I am so pleased that this tradition at Cornwall School lives on! Grades 1-6 all have scheduled dates for the 2015 Ski Season. We are indebted to our ever faithful families who take time from their lives to transport the children to and from. The best news is that the school is able to offer this experience free of charge using monies from the Gilligan Fund. Come join us!  First and Second Graders will ski according to the following schedule:
Tuesday February 3rd
Tuesday February 10th
Tuesday February  24th  
All morning time slots!
