We would like to invite everyone to our Open House on Thursday, April 23rd from 6:30-8:00 p.m.
The children have done a wonderful job researching habitats and preparing our bulletin boards and classroom to reflect what they have learned.  We can't wait to share all our projects with family and friends.
