You Are Our Cup of Tea

Ms. Carolene Sings Our Opening Song

Getting to Know You from "The King and I"

Getting to Know You from "The King and I"

Getting to Know You from "The King and I"

Getting to Know You from "The King and I"

This is the song that inspires us to learn about peoples from all cultures worldwide!



My Cup of Tea Idiom:  Something that is in accord with one's liking or taste. For example, Quiz shows are just my cup of tea, or Baseball is not her cup of tea. The origin of this metaphorical expression has been lost, but the positive version—“he's my cup of tea”—has been used since the late 1800 and the negative—not one's cup of tea—since the 1920s.

Operation Christmas Child

Check back next October to participate in this program!

Samaritan's Purse collects shoeboxes filled with toys and school supplies for children all over the world..."Operation Christmas Child is a project of Samaritan’s Purse, an international relief organization. Our mission is to provide local partners around the world with shoeboxes filled with small toys, hygiene items, and school supplies as a means of reaching out to children in their own communities with the Good News of Jesus Christ. We ship these simple gifts outside the United States to children affected by war, poverty, natural disaster, famine, and disease; and to children living on Native American reservations in the U.S." 


Friendship International will participate again in OCTOBER 2023.
