Good morning everyone! I just wanted to remind everyone of the Gala, which will take place on February 22, 2014. Its going to be a great, and I really hope to see you all there :) We are heading to the Science Center on Wednesday! Please be sure pack your children a disposal lunch as it is easier to clean up! This Thursday is VALENTINES DAY SPIRIT DAY! The children are encouraged to dress in red, white, and pink. The next day, Friday, February 14^th, 2014 will be a PD day, so there will be no school. Take a look at our day.
