We hope everyone had a great holiday weekend! This week we are doing our review from topics covered in March and transitioning into April curriculum. Keep an eye on the weather, we are still in that weird season change where we have really nice days and some cold ones. Please bring back the dentist program permission sheets, the school needs 25 children enrolled to start the program.
