Family Literacy Night

20 people attended Family Literacy Night.  We enjoyed popcorn while we played a variety of board games together. 

Taking time to play board games at home with your child helps your child learn a variety of skills.  They learn they must follow directions, take turns, read simple instructions, and have fun still while learning! 

Everyone left with a smile on their face and a door prize in their hand!  Thanks to everyone that came and participated!

Kindergarten Round Up a Great Success!

Last night we had a wonderful turn out of incoming kindergarteners and their parents here to register for fall kindergarten.  It was so much fun seeing all the children coming in with big smiles on their faces so excited to start school.  I can't wait to get them all back here in the Fall.  It is going to be an exciting time for all of us!
