Knock Knock, Come in Dr. Seuss



Schutz Celebrates Dr. Seuss's Birthday

By Hanna El-Amrawi

Knock Knock! Who is there? March 3rd!? March 3rd? What is happening on March 3rd? Dr Seuss’s birthday! This March, the spirit of Dr. Seuss has come to Schutz American School. Let me tell you this, if Dr. Seuss were still alive he would have been so impressed at the decorated doors, which certain grades have decided to decorate in celebration of his birthday.

This brilliant idea started when Mrs. Jane Walsh, the upper school librarian, encountered Tonya Drummond, a ninth grader, and was informed that March 3rd was the birthday of Dr. Sues. Tonia related that, in her old school, on March 3rd, every door from Pre-k to twelfth grade, was decorated in honor of Dr. Seuss. ‘I love Dr. Seuss! He is quirky”, said Tonya. Having heard this idea, Mrs. Walsh decided to add a little bit of enthusiasm to our school and had created a contest where all grades can compete for the best decorated door. On march 3rd during the afternoon, two committees were formed in order to judge the Lower and Upper school doors. The first committee headed by Mr.Bob Medina judged the lower school, while the committee headed by Dr. Joyce, judged the Upper school doors. The results were as follows:

Pre K 4 and Senior Class: Best Eye Appeal

Grade 1 and Grade 8: Best Dr. Suess Spirit

Grade 2: Best evidence of Student Work

Grade 3: Most creative

Grade 6: Participation
