Welcome to September! We are so excited to begin a new month of learning, exploring, and growing together.
Attached is our September Newsletter, which includes important dates.
As part of our “Learning Around the World” theme, we will also be celebrating with special Dress-Up Fridays! Every other Friday, students will have the opportunity to dress in a way that connects to the country, culture, or part of the world we are exploring. These days are a fun way to bring our learning to life and encourage curiosity about the amazing world around us.
Please remember that participation is completely optional, and students should always feel comfortable coming to school in their regular school uniforms.
Thank you for partnering with us as we create meaningful and exciting learning experiences for our students. We can’t wait to explore the world together this September!
