Recyclable Items Needed
For crafts at camp this summer, we are in need of the following items:
paper towel rolls (just the empty roll-- not the paper)
empty water bottles
If you are able to donate any of these items, it would be greatly appreciated! You can drop off these items at the preschool desk in the galleria. Thank you so much!
School Starts at 9:00am!
Please make every effort to get your children to school by 9:00am so that they can have the full morning of learning and playing at school! Thank you!
