What's New in C2?
Think. Innovate. Create. August 22 - September 2
Happy Labor Day Weekend!
We have made it to our 18th day of school! We are now starting to find a flow to our day and the children are developing great routines and procedures. As we continue to teach these and remind them of expectations, we are also introducing new 2nd grade concepts to them. You'll begin seeing your child's Fresh Grade fill with helpful information on your child's progress as the year continues. As always, please stay in touch with any questions you may have on this.
Loving Learning,
Your C2 Lead Learners & Paras
