* A HUGE thank you to all of the parents that helped with the Fall Festival. It was a HUGE success even though we had to have it inside due to the weather.
*On Friday, October 22nd we will be participating in the School Walk for Diabetes for Make a Difference Day. Our class will be walking at 2:30 along with the rest of Kindergarten.

Please be sure to watch the local newspaper and WNEP for coverage of this exciting event.
