A Note from Our Principal
We look forward to the holiday season as it is a time to celebrate community, diversity, and the universal joy of giving. During the month of November we gave thanks to our families and friends. We had a wonderful family project where we were able to disguise Tom Turkey! I must say we have many creative families. The children also had the opportunity to enjoy Thanksgiving through dramatic play as they had a Fancy Feast while sharing what they were Thankful for. For the month of December, students will be learning about traditions observed around the world by singing songs, making art, tasting seasonal treats, and so much more! We’ll be sending additional information in the coming weeks via Links 2 Home. As always, thank you for allowing us to teach and care for your children.
Sincerely,
Karina Medina
