📚🍎 More First-Day Moments from DuFief!

The learning begins on Day One for our Preschool and Pre-K friends! ✏️🧩

Our teachers are already working with children in small groups to assess their current skills and get a better understanding of where each child is academically. These early observations help our teachers create meaningful lesson plans and activities that meet children where they are while encouraging them to learn, grow, and build confidence. 🌱💛

A great school year starts with getting to know each child—and we’re just getting started!

A friendly safety reminder about stopping for school buses.

School is back and that means school buses are back on the road.

Know when Maryland law requires you to stop, stay alert, and give students the time and space they need to get to and from school safely.

Slow down. Stay alert. Stop for school buses. Keep kids safe.
