Good afternoon,

I hope everyone had a great night!

Just a reminder to dress according to the ever-changing weather!

It is our bake sale this month. I am hoping that all families will be able to bring in a baked good of some sort (nut free of course)! The bake sale is running Tuesday-Thursday of next week. Any items can be brought to the class beginning Tuesday morning and we will set up as necessary!! Thank you very much in advance!
