Weekly Wednesday Update

Join us tomorrow night for our final COLTS-CARE of the year
Hello Mountain View Family!
We are excited to announce this Thursday is our final COLTS CARE evening event. We have loved sharing stories and coming together each month as a Mountain View family. This month's character trait is perhaps the most appropriate one for our 2020/2021 school year- resilience. We will be reading two books: The Proudest Blue, and We Are Water Protectors, and discussing times when we have overcome challenges, and persevered as individuals and as a community. We have two wonderful guest speakers, including our first student reader, 5th grader, Hiba! Whether you have attended every event, or this would be your first, we hope to see you Thursday night at 6 PM!
