Winter Weather

As you’ve probably noticed, it has gotten A LOT colder in the past week. Please make sure your kiddo has the proper attire for outdoor recess at temperatures down to 32 degrees and windshields down to 25 degrees. Please make sure your kiddo has a coat, hat, and gloves at least each day. Thank you so much for your help.

Winter Party

Our Holiday Party will be December 21st from 9:00-10:00. Feel free to come and enjoy the fun!

Happy Thanksgiving

I am so grateful for each one of you and for the opportunity to get to work with your amazing kiddos!
