Hello Allenwood Families! Hope you enjoyed the snowy weekend!
This past week the students shopped at the Holiday Shop for all their treasures for loved ones.
Thank you to all the awesome volunteers helped the students shop and wrap the special purchases and Susan DeSimone for organizing!
The Winter Concert was huge success and put everyone who attended in the holiday mood! A big thank you to Mr. Brown and Mrs. Ko for another great show, to Ms. Laurie and staff, and to all our fantastic teachers who came out to chaperone!
The main entrance pots at the school are very festive thanks to the Forcellati Family!

Allenwood Theater Club
Have you ever wanted to travel back in time? Our Allenwood Theater Club will do exactly that as they take a trip through their amazing, Jukebox Time Machine! As the cast and crew visit different decades, they discover a few fun facts from the time machine tour guides and then check out some of the biggest musical hits from the past 80 years.
Rehearsals will begin the week of January 8th, on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays throughout the month of January, all in preparation for our final performance on Friday, February 2nd, right here on our Allenwood stage. Acting in the Theater Club is open to all 4th and 5th graders, and the Tech crew is open to 5th graders as well. We hope you all will join us for this awesome production!
