A Note from Our Principal
Spring is in the air, and we’re excited to experience the season’s changes with our students! Throughout the month, we’ll observe budding trees, explore shifting weather patterns, and celebrate Earth Day by learning how we can care for our planet. We’re also kicking off April with a special celebration to honor our amazing students and the wonderful community we’ve built together. We look forward to a season filled with growth, discovery, and fun!

Sincerely,

Ms. Vici

Week of the Young Child
Week of the Young Child, April 7 – 11, is an annual celebration sponsored by the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC). It is a fun-filled week celebrating early learning, young children, their teachers, families, and communities. Our school will be participating with hands-on, collaborative activities encouraging movement and healthy lifestyles through music, food, and art. By celebrating, we are reaffirming and recommitting our responsibility to ensure every child gains early learning experiences that build a strong foundation for the future. Stay tuned for more information via Links 2 Home!

Earth Day
Earth Day is Tuesday, April 22nd! Throughout the month, our classes will explore the small ways they can make a big impact on our planet’s health. On Earth Day, our school will be releasing ladybugs into our schoolyard! Ladybugs help local vegetation by eating harmful insects. We’re excited to celebrate this important day with hands-on learning and meaningful activities!

Family Referral Bonus
Do you know a colleague who has recently had a baby, a friend in need of care who just relocated to the area, or a family member who is seeking a new preschool for their child? When you refer a friend and they enroll, you’re eligible for a free week of tuition. Ask us for details!

Week of the Young Child, April 7 – 11, is a great opportunity for new families to see our schools in action. We’re welcoming families into our celebrations all week, so spread the word!

Summer Camp
Registration for a summer of adventure is open, but spots are filling fast! There is nothing that compares to watching your child’s confidence grow and seeing them have fun and make friends. By enrolling, you’re giving them a summer they’ll never forget. Please contact us to learn more.
