Great 1st week!
We had a GREAT 1st week of school! The kids were super behaved and listened carefully to the classroom rules, rountines, and procedures.
Hopefully everyone received my welcome letter and placed it in a safe place to use for future reference.
We had an extra treat Friday afternoon with Chris Rumble coming to perform. Pictures coming soon!
Hope everyone has a restful weekend! Thanks for sharing your child with me daily!
