We are busy with the hustle and bustle of the season! Please be sure to see our hallway display when you come to school Tuesday night for the Christmas Show.
Last week we were visited by the museum educators from Hofstra University. They brought some artifacts and the kids worked in groups to try and decide what they were used for. We are looking forward to our trip to Hofstra this Friday. Parents wishing should attend should let me know by Wednesday. I will send home a map of the campus so that you know where to park and meet us.
