3,&785(' The craft of Pysanky - creating
Easter eggs using hand-dipped wax and dyes, is
a popular annual activity held at the library.
Above, one of the many participants who enjoyed
making eggs for the Easter season. This year’s
class was led by Mike Kapeluck from St. Peter
and Paul Ukrainian Church in Carnegie, whose
mother started the annual Ukrainian Pysanky
Sale at their church. The sale is now in its 43rd
year, and is being held this year on April 5.

BELOW: Following their annual “Teddy Bear Sleepover,” McKee
Elementary School first graders in Debra Wolf’s class each
received a stuffed teddy bear from Build-A-Bear Workshop. After
seeing a story on the event in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, the
company, on behalf of its Founder and Chief Executive Bear,
Maxine Clark, said it wished to acknowledge the efforts of the
teacher for an activity that was innovative, educational, and, of
course, featured teddy bears. The students wrote letters to thank
Build-A-Bear Workshop for the donation.

ABOVE: Ten McKee Elementary students received blue ribbons from Judy Kinnee of Usborne Books as the top readers and fundraisers for their
grade level in the “Reach for the Stars” reading program: Devon Schmitt, Logan Sheehy, Samantha Kyle, Delaney Locy, Nathan Cronin, Frederick
Holt, Chloe Kehm, Sarah Behr, Jess Ligas, and McKailee Darnley. The goal was to have students read a minimum of 300 minutes and collect
pledges based on the number of minutes they read over a two-week period. The program is designed to promote good reading habits while
allowing the students to earn books for themselves as well as over $1,800 worth of educational materials for their classrooms. Since the program
theme for this year was science, each student who met the $100 pledge challenge received a set of “50 Science Things to Make and Do” activity
cards. Every child who met the 300-minute reading minimum was presented with a Certificate of Participation signed by McKee Principal Tom Orr.
Because the school reached its reading goal of 35,000 minutes, Mr. Orr, pictured rear, far right, kept his promise to dress as the mad scientist for
the day, even spraying his hair red in keeping with one of the school colors.
