lunch before nap time. If your student is in one of these classes, but not
scheduled to attend on Thursday, please feel free to join us! We will provide
admission tickets for all students in these classes. However, students not
scheduled to attend on Thursdays will need to be accompanied by a parent. More

Recycling Fundraiser for Charity
April 15-19
As part of our Recycling curriculum, we will encourage
students to bring refundable cans and bottles to recycle, and we will donate

sustainable source of food and income for families in a third world country by
purchasing a fruit tree and some chicks from foodforthepoor.org.
