This week, two of our Pre-k classes had the honor of welcoming a special guest author, Regina McCarthy, who shared a meaningful story about being courageous and learning tools to help us through challenges. Our students were engaged, thoughtful, and excited as they explored ways to be brave, use their voices, and find strategies to help them when things feel hard.

Our Barnyard Pre Wee class is full of curiosity, energy, and fun! This group has grown so much from those first days of school. They love art and pretend. They love fine motor activities like learning to use scissors and other pre-writing skills. They love to run around outside or in the gym (on those cold wintry days). The friendships that have formed this year have been so fun to watch. It’s hard to believe our time together is coming to a close.
Did you visit the lobby this week? So much fun!!!
