ach year, the Lower School Library puts a Book Fair for the Lower School

students to gain experience in choosing books. Ranging from pre-kindergarten to fourth grade reading levels, the books represent a large range of genres. Taking time out from their classes, the grades individually visit the Fair, located in the Upper School’s Madden Hall. By first previewing the collection with the class, the children may return with their parents to purchase the books. The Book Fair will

f hopefully inspire a lifetime of reading.

I. Jesse Shedd and Mark lobst talk about what books they like the most. z, Alice Masayesva ponders the intellecutal stimulation she might receive if she choose the book Taxi Taxi. 5.

mother, Ms. Warren.

ndergartners Evan Kolbet, Elana Leifer, Aaron Witt, and Alycia iwes show their patriotism by singing “Take Me Out to the Ball ark."

1 / lection Day has always been thought of as a day for adults,18+. But no longer. On November 7, 2000, the Lower School

wanted to emphasize the importance of politics in our

society, even for those 18 -. Students were able to cast their votes in our own PCDS election, George W. Bush winning the

kindergarten. A brunch was served for their parents who were either on their way from or to the polls. Following the brunch, a musical program was performed.

The little ones sang patriotic songs like “Take Me Out to the Ball Game,” “Yankee Doodle Dandy,” and the “Star-Spangled Banner.” This celebration of our democratic government helped to show the children that learning and fun can always work together.

Max Leonesio is ready to cast his ballot for the future of his country.

Tf he fihe fifth grade trip to Astrocam p is a great experience for students to be involved with each other and the world around them. As the first class trip PCDS offers, Astrocamp in Idyllwild California allows the students a close knit area to study at the Desert Science Center and to get to know their classmates better. Astronom y is highly emphasized, with w ide ranging activities that allow the students to be more involved. Astrocam p was a good introduction for fifth graders into the new world of Middle School.

Stephen Vrla shows his adventurous side.

Seventh graders swimm ing at Slide Rock.

' TI he seventh grade trip is a bonding experience in northern Arizona. Learning teamwork and tolerance, much time is spent outdoors. Eight seniors accompany the class to play the role of counselor, mentor, and friend. The days were spent on ropes courses, hiking, canoeing, and team work activities. The nights were filled with skits, stories and time spent by the bon fire. Some favorite memories could be: watching the seniors bounce around on stage making fools of themselves, climbing a rock wall blind folded, or kitchen duty. Well, maybe not kitchen duty.

first dance. The 7th and 8th grade dance was held on November 17 in Madden Hall. This was a great opportunity for the two grades to socialize, eat, dance, and maybe learn a

little about life. The girls were decked in glitter wear, while the boys hadn’t seem to have changed since school that afternoon.

New moves were born on the dance floor, while new twists were added to old ones. Whether experiencing that feeling of waiting to be asked to dance by your crush, or just letting it all loose in a big

group, fun was had by all.

f he power of the PCDS Lacrosse team stems from the team’s brute strength and force. Our team had some of the highest scores in the league, and our track record is astonishing. A PCDS game is always truly enjoyable to watch because of the passion and energy that the boys put into their playing. Due to the many returning seniors, including captains Jeff Sand, Sab Fabricius, and Greg Abdouch, the team was very strong. Lacrosse enjoyed an amazing year and we look forward to next year’s season.

Fold up the maps and put away the globe.If someone else had charted it, let them.Start another drawing with whales at the bottom and cormorants at the top, and in between identify, if you can, the places you have not found yet on those other maps, the connections obvious only to you.

Round and flat, only a very little has been discovered.§ Jeanette Wintersori

4 A s you look through the 2001 Phoenician, please join m e in thanking the many talented students who have made an enormous commitment to make this book as

b i wonderful as possible.

This year the staff will be saying goodbye to two very talented young i women. We hope that Michelle Hertzfeld and Kim Ruht are as successful

1 jwith everything they attempt as they have been with the yearbook. Also,* good luck to the new yearbook staff— Sophie Nye as senior editor, Clint Corcoran and Humberto Duarte as junior ' editors, and Roberto Morales as most valued photographer and photo editor for the second year. Each of the editors has R shown his/her dedication by working very hard on the current book. In addition, there have been many other students who

have worked on pages to help meet deadlines.

V A special thank you to Nick Barranco who is responsible for the wonderful middle school sports copy, and to Gordan 1 Kmjaic and Julie McReynolds for the graphics you see throughout the book. I ’m sure you will all enjoy Julie’s work on

the dragons and Gordan’s work on the sun and moon.
