A note from the principal’s desk:  

Dear Parents,

Summer has come to an end and another school year is upon us. We’d like to extend a warm welcome to our new families, and a sincere thank you to returning families and those that chose to spend their summer with us. We enjoyed making memories with your children and are looking forward to spending the fall season together.

Links to Learning is continuing in the classrooms and the children are busy exploring their environments.  This month the children will be celebrating our Grandparents with a Zoom Celebration.  We have a lot of activities planned including Western Day on September 16th and having our annual APPLE WEEK!

Back to School Week

We are excited to host a Back to School Week straight from your child’s classroom! Our teachers will Zoom with you from 6:00 pm to 6:30 pm and explain your child’s classroom routine and highlights of our program for the 2021-2022 school year during the week of September 13th-17th.   This is a wonderful opportunity for our teachers and families to connect.
