Last week’s Spirit Week was filled with so many fun moments for our young learners! They enjoyed themed dress-up days, special visitors, bubbles, magic, sweet treats, and celebrating together with friends all week long.

Thank you to our wonderful families and staff for helping create such special memories throughout the week!

Today, on Memorial Day, we pause to honor and remember the men and women who gave their lives in service to our country.

Their sacrifice is a solemn reminder of the cost of freedom: One that can never be repaid, only remembered with gratitude and respect.

May we take a moment of reflection, hold space for their memory, and honor the legacy they leave behind.

We are excited to share that Gutman has a brand-new outdoor play system featuring updated slides, a jungle gym, and more for our young learners to enjoy! 🛝🌿

Outdoor play is a vital part of early childhood development, helping children build strength, coordination, social skills, and creativity. Time outside also gives students a chance to reset so they can return to the classroom focused, refreshed, and ready to learn.

We will also be hosting a ribbon cutting celebration to officially open the new playground! Stay tuned for details!

We can’t wait to see our children explore, move, and grow in this new space. 🛝

Yesterday at Gutman, we proudly celebrated Move-Up Day as our young learners took their exciting next step toward kindergarten! 🎓✨

It was a joyful day filled with smiles, proud moments, and celebration as we recognized how much these students have grown throughout the year. Watching them learn, build confidence, and shine has been such a rewarding journey, and we know they are ready for all the adventures ahead.

We can’t wait to see all they accomplish next!

Philadelphia’s heat wave is here, and temperatures are expected to stay high throughout the week. Help our young learners stay safe by sending them in lightweight clothing, encouraging regular water breaks, and limiting long periods in direct sunlight. Small steps can make a big difference during extreme heat. 💧🧢☀️

At our FELS Centers, we know that moms do so much more than care for their children. They help shape the future leaders of tomorrow through their love, strength, guidance, and sacrifice. Mothers are the heart of so many families, and their impact reaches far beyond the home.

Last Friday, we had the honor of celebrating our amazing FELS moms with special breakfasts and meaningful time spent with their children and loved ones. Mother’s Day is a reminder to recognize the women who nurture, encourage, and inspire every single day, often without asking for anything in return. We are grateful for all that our mothers and caregivers do to build strong families and brighter futures. 💐

Happy Mother’s Day from all of us at FELS! 💐❤️🌷

Today, we’re celebrating the moms, grandmothers, and caregivers who show up every day with love, strength, patience, and care. Your support shapes families, uplifts communities, and leaves a lasting impact in ways big and small.

Thank you for all that you do, today and every day. We wish you a day filled with love and appreciation.
