Hello everyone! Can you believe it's already May?!
For this final month of school before summer, we're talking about DETERMINATION. We're defining determination as "deciding it's worth it to finish what you started". For preschool, we're simplifying this to "I can finish what I start". Determination is HUGE! We wouldn't be able to get accomplish anything without it! To learn more about the conversations we'll be having here at school or to find some discussion questions you can ask at home, visit the website to find your parent newsletter:

We are proud of our students of the month for April! We want to recognize them for their positive sportsmanship, leadership and humility they have shown this month! Humility is putting others first by giving up what you think you deserve! David, Erica, Raelyne, Reagan, Kynslea, Israel & Zachary
