Christmas Greetings-Please!

[Sherry Nelson <ride0459@RIDE.RI.NET>]

Dear Netters,

I love the idea of having an international internet Christmas tree.
Our first tree was as overwhelming success last year.  So once again, I
am asking for Christmas greetings from all 50 states and as many countries
as possible.  Messages sent in native languages, in addition to English, are
particularly encouraged!

For our December community project, a large Christmas tree in our
Media Center will be decorated with white doves of peace cutout ornaments
which our students have already created.  Each dove will have a printed
greeting from one of You(!) attached to it, then laminated, strung with red
ribbon,
and hung on the tree.  A large world map will be displayed on an easel nearby,
pinpointing the location of senders with dove stickers.  Our goal is to
visually demonstrate the power of the net for our students, staff, and
community.  My students and I are very excited about this project, and
hope to hear from as many of you as soon as possible.

Burrillville Middle School is located in the northwestern corner of
Little Rhody, with 850 students enrolled in grades 6-8.  Thanks in
Advance for your consideration.

May we all hear the sounds of peace this holiday season!
