It was great to see so many of you at Dragon Bash on Saturday!
What a great day celebrating our wonderful community!
On Monday at morning snack, the boys and girls noticed that one of the trees had fallen in the storms over the weekend, so of course we had to investigate!
Applesauce Party!
On Tuesday, we were finally able to taste our applesauce courtesy of the Pre-K chefs! While some students were not the biggest fans, the overall consensus was that it was delicious! The students even shared some with their friends in kindergarten. Ms. Z and I had so much fun with the kids, we can't wait to cook again!
Good till the last lick!

Blessing of the Pets
Prayer to St. Francis for Our Pets
