News to Know

• Wednesday is a Half Day with Noon Dismissal. We eat lunch on half days so please be sure to send your daughter with a lunch.

• We will be gardening twice per month with Joel Gerber our gardener-in-residence! I think the girls might benefit by having a large, old over sized shirt at school for 'messy' days (art, too). Please send those in, labelled.
