[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You need something that occurs more than once a year - not a one time picnic or fundraiser. I would do monthly coffees (one per grade or a few grades together) or meet ups a playground. You also need to do a variety of morning, after school and evening stuff so everyone can try to make it.[/quote] Yes, playground meetups are a great start ... you just have to vary the times so that no one group gets excluded. Don't worry about pleasing everyone -- that's impossible. Of the four ideas you listed, I think the community picnic is the best. Sure, some people won't be able to come, but lots will. Building community takes time. I think charity drives are a great way to foster community. You can do lots of fun things like setting a challenge for which grade can bring in the most school supplies/nonperishable food/socks, etc. [/quote]
