Pre-K and Kindergarten students are eagerly anticipating the 100th day of school! As of now, if we do not have any snow days, the 100th day of school will be on Wednesday, February 11. We are planning a special day full of fun activities for the students together!
We are inviting all families to participate in a very special 100th day project! We would like each child to bring in 100 of something. This can be presented in any way you like - maybe 100 cheerios in a bag, 100 stickers on a poster, or 100 pom-poms on a shirt. We encourage you to get creative - Google and Pinterest have some fantastic ideas! The students will be sharing their 100 day creations with the classes on the 100th day of school. All projects are due in school by Tuesday, February 10. You may send them in earlier if they are finished.
Let the Adventure Begin! June 8 – August 14, 2026!
