April Showers Bring May Flowers!
I just wanted to let everyone know that I will be doing the Outdoor Summer Camp Specialist position again this summer. This means that for the month of April I will be in and out for kindergarten enrichment and afterschool care. I will have a sub that will be here when I am not. During the month of May I will be working up at Antioch Park and there will be a sub here. You can still email me and I can pass on any information to the teachers. I will be back in August!!

Getting Healthy Information
We know that kids who eat healthier and move more perform better in school. It's not just because teachers and administrators tell us so. Research shows that healthy kids get better grades, attend school more often and behave better in class.
Experts recommend that kids get 60 minutes of physical activity every day. These minutes can come before, during, or after school as long as kids are staying active and having fun!
NO CARE ON SNOW DAYS
