F
rom face painting and pumpkins to bounce houses and pies, fall festivities were in full swing at Ocean Studies Charter School in Key Largo on Oct. 9. Parents and teachers organized a fun-filled event for students and their families to enjoy. Car trunks were decorated in Halloween and fall themes, and some even had games for children to enjoy. A dunk tank allowed students to dunk their teachers, while judges dipped into desserts to crown the best pie. “This turned out better than we thought,” said Saida Cruz, parent of three and president of the school’s parent-teacher association. “We definitely will do this again next year.” — Weekly staff report JIM McCARTHY/Keys Weekly

he Upper Keys Weekly is proud to partner with Treasure Village Montessori faculty and students in choosing “The Student of the Week.” Recipients are chosen on qualifications including academic standing athletics, outstanding achievements, community involvement, individuality and moral fortitude. We thank our future leaders and TVM for allowing us to share in a weekly dose of “Sea Dragon” pride and for giving us a glimpse into their world. What is something most people don’t know about you? Something most people don’t know about me is that I have a brother. He’s 23 and his name is Zane. And I also have a sister. She’s 19 and her name is Abby. Who is your all-time favorite teacher and why? My all-time favorite teacher is Mrs. Linda because she has genuinely made teaching fun for me and I enjoy her teaching technique.
What do you want to be when you grow up and why? I would like to be a psychiatrist when I grow up because I would like to understand the human brain and mind more. What do you hope to be remembered for at TVM? I hope to be remembered as the unproblematic one. Although I think I would also like to be remembered for my spot on the volleyball team. What is one favorite way to spend your spare time? My favorite way to spend my spare time is to practice volleyball or do archery with music. Will you make the Keys your permanent home in the future? Why or why not? No, the Keys will not be my permanent home in the future, and this is because if and/ or when I finish college I would like to travel and experience life.
