Dear Families,
We have been fortunate that many of our classes participated in Open Minds a week long field trip experience. This included Zoo School, Stampede School and City Hall School. Organizers have shared heartwarming feedback and comments about our student’s engagement and respect and overall HEART. Thank you to the several volunteers who played a significant role in supporting the students, teachers and programs. The generosity of your time was greatly appreciated.

April showers (and snow), bring May flowers ...

Growing Smiles is a fundraiser that does both!
