Butterfly School News for February!!
SHARING THE LOVE
Butterfly School Students will be making Valentine notes for the residents of the Sandy Lake Rehabilitation and Care Center in Coppell. On Valentine's Day, we'll deliver our notes to these sweet people. After school on the 14th, we are inviting parents to bring your child to the Care Center to greet the residents and hand out the notes. They are expecting us at 2:15. This will not take long--we should be finished by 2:45. These few minutes sharing our Valentines could make the day special for the residents and help our children learn the joy of being kind and loving to others.
Hope to see you and your child at the Care Center on February 14 !
