The Jungle Beat
January 10, 2016
Our mission is to create a culture of intellectual curiosity where all students have ownership over their learning and are inspired to think, innovate, and create.
News and Notes
I hope you all enjoyed special time with loved ones during this holiday season. Children at this age change emotionally and physically almost daily. This held true over the Christmas break. It has been fun having the children back and seeing how much they have grown. The New Year brought us a new learner. Dane joined us this week and it seems like he has always been a part of our family. I am looking forward to a great week!
