This week spirit day is Where's Waldo. The iconic, elusive man in the red-and-white striped shirt was first hidden away in 1987 by British illustrator Martin Handford. Handford had been drawing since he was a boy, and was particularly fond of viewing and drawing crowd scenes. He felt crowds contained a certain kind of excitement, and he liked to capture it on paper. His Images always included one hidden man named Waldo. This week we ask that everyone do their best to dress as Waldo or where similarly colored clothing to make it a challenge to find the one true Waldo. We look forward to seeing what you come up with...Did you spot him in this picture?

Culture Corner Update - Ramadan, the Islamic holy month began on April 12  and runs until  May 11 this year.   Ramadan is a festive time in Islam, meant for togetherness and community.  The term Ramadan came from the Arabic word ramida which means scorching heat. During Ramadan, Muslims are obliged to fast. Fasting is not only a form of abstaining food and drinks. It also involves refraining from sinful acts like lying, cursing, gossiping, bad intentions, and other similar things. It meant to help Muslims to clear their mind and body. To break the fast, they often eat dates just like what Muhammad did. Ramadan is concluded by Eid ul Fitr or the largest festivity ending Ramadan. Muslims wear their best clothes, give gifts, visit mosques, eat a lot, and spend time with their family during this day. It is considered as a day of gratitude for surpassing the spiritual month.
