The children are acclimating to second grade! They are responsible for more and it is quite an adjustment. Please be sure they receive proper rest each night and come to school with a much needed snack to enjoy mid-morning so they can do their very best! As always, thank you for your support and please feel free to contact me if ever you have a question or concern.

Blessings on your week.
