Welcome back! I hope you enjoyed our Thanksgiving Holiday Break. Now, it is time for us to go back to work. It is difficult to believe our year is almost half over! We have much to do in the upcoming weeks!  
 

 
 
This year we are very excited about learning to read, so rather than exchange toys, we are going to exchange books. I am asking that each child bring new book(s) worth $5.00. Please make sure it is a storybook and not a workbook or coloring book.
