January 2019
Dear Families,
Welcome back! It is so hard to believe that we are beginning our 2nd half of the school year. We hope you enjoyed your time off with your little ones. While we are not looking forward to bad winter weather, we are looking forward to the possibility of SNOW! Our classrooms are filled with snowmen and snowflakes in anticipation of what winter could bring. Winter is a magical time of year... sledding, snow angels, snowballs! Included in our building newsletter are some of our favorite books about winter. Grab some hot cocoa and snuggle up with your little one to read a good book about winter! Check out the Book List for some great winter books to read with your little one.
Wishing you well,
Dr. Sarah Birk, Principal
