If you happen to find/see snow pants fitting this description, please send them in with your child.

Summer Programs 2010
Children not currently enrolled in Toddler ECP Including Summer or Primary ADM Including Summer are invited to sign up for our summer program on a space-available basis. These programs provide continuity for children throughout the summer and give parents the peace of mind to know that their children obtain the same care and understanding as during the school year. Please click the appropriate link to find out about our programs.
Trevor EisslerDrama  There are still a few spots left in the second semester drama session for children 5 and up, led by Mr. Barry Moore. Drama is a great way for children to be involved in different activities, such as improvisation, comedy, play-writing and speaking in front of an audience.  It's not too late to sign up! Click here for information and registration form.
Parent Association meeting minutes are now available for review by any interested parent. They are located in the yellow folder on the 3rd floor on the table outside of Ms. Doris' office.
Guinea hens   Please do not stop in the driveway just because the guinea hens are on the blacktop. They will move out of your way if you continue driving at a slow pace.

"Most of the decisions parents make are arbitrary.  They are matters of personal preference, not universal absolutes.  That's why "because I said so" is usually the most honest answer a parent can give a child asking why? or why not?"
