Science, Math, and Art are the amazing! Your child will be doing lots of experiments and art this month after they are finished with their homework! We will have a schedule up of our activities this month for you to see! Please let us know if you would like us to work with your child on a certain subject. We would like to make sure they still have fun and have a chance to play with the others, so we appreciate your patience with us.
We would like to thank the families that helped out in the class rooms this month, the kids and teachers really enjoyed it! Also, we appreciate your patience as we have been dealing with HFM virus. We haven’t had a breakout like this before, so it’s not been fun for us. We worry about the children and are cleaning fanatics!
