PreK eNews

Have you ever seen so many adorable “jungle animals?” We are so proud of the children! They did a fantastic job performing during chapel. Then they blessed the “grandmas and grandpas” at The Maples Assisted Living with their smiles, singing, and hugs. It is truly special to witness the exchanges of love between the children and the precious elderly people there.
We are so excited about our field trip next Thursday to Farm Friends. Children need to wear the purple field trip shirt. We will eat lunch at school, and then load the buses at 11:30. Parents are invited to meet us at the Pauline Whitaker Animal Science Center (1335 W Knapp St.) at 11:55. We will return to school around 1:40. If you wish to take your child home from the Animal Science Center, please sign out your child with the teacher.
