Fun winter animal facts! Did you know? Some animals remain and stay active in the winter. They must adapt to the changing weather. Many make changes in their behavior or bodies. To keep warm, animals may grow new, thicker fur in the fall. On weasels and snowshoe rabbits, the new fur is white to help them hide in the snow.

Presidents' Day, commonly known as Washington’s Birthday, is a federal holiday observed on the third Monday of February in the United States.

It is a day to commemorate the birthdays of two of America’s most renowned presidents: George Washington, the first President of the United States, and Abraham Lincoln, the 16th.

The holiday was created to commemorate George Washington, who was born on February 22, 1732. It was declared a federal holiday in 1879 and became a national holiday in the United States with the enactment of the Uniform Monday Holiday Act in 1968. Presidents' Day is a day set aside to celebrate and reflect on the legacies of these two great Presidents, who helped shape the United States into what it is today.

Can you believe it's February (January may have seemed super long, though)?! It's a good time to check in with your child to see how they are feeling about the back half of the school year. And while January may have seemed like it lasted for 500 days, the end of the school year will be here before we know it. Is your child prepared for what comes next? Maybe it is a big transition year to middle or high school, or simply just a change. Now is a great time to do a mid-year check in to see how things are progressing before it is too late.
