Goal Setting Opportunities!
The new year brings time to reflect on previous goals and create new ones. As we begin second semester, remember to encourage your child to set goals, take time to ask them about their progress on the goals daily, and help them reach the goals they have set.
Recess
We will continue to go outside for recess as often as the weather allows. Please help your child dress appropriately for the weather elements!
Educator and Employee of the Year!
