Fall is in the air! In this month of thankfulness, we would like to express our thanks to all of you for entrusting your most precious possession in our care, your child. During the month of November, the children will enjoy talking about what they are thankful for. They will also have the opportunity to share family traditions and learn all about the joy of friendship. Our Trunk-or-Treat was a great success! Thank you to all our parent volunteers who helped make it wonderful. Our events would not be successful without you, thank you. This month, in addition to our weekly skills, we will focus on friendship with our “acts of kindness.”
We are grateful for you all, Happy Thanksgiving!
