Welcome to May, Preschool Families!



It's hard to believe, but we are in our second to last month of our school year!  It will be a busy one, and we are hoping that all of the rain will finally bring us May flowers.  Until then, don't forget to send along rain gear and extra, dry clothes!


In both classrooms, we have been busy exploring Spring and everything that goes along with it!  Don't forget to take a peek through the blog to see photos of what we've been up to!




We have a lot of upcoming events as we near the end of the year, so break out your calendars and note these dates!
