Fall is in full swing and our students are enjoying the extra outdoor time, nature walks and seasonal curriculum activities. Our soccer, dance and gymnastics ancillary programs are also back up and running, and we are enjoying watching our students learn and grow in their extracurricular activities.

As a reminder:
* We are a peanut free school.
* If your child is sick, we will adhere to our sick policy.
* Please make sure to check your child’s cubby and/or mailbox for important information.

Daily reports are sent via email each day, but our Links 2 Home app keeps all school communications in one place and is always accessible. The app also allows to you communicate absences to your child’s teacher, leave drop-off notes, and read teacher and administrative notes in detail.

Your Opinion Matters!
Our parent survey is launching soon and we’d appreciate you spending a few minutes to take the survey. You will receive an invitation by email on 10/2. Please let us know if you do not receive it!
Love our school? Leave us a review!
In today’s connected world, many families turn to online reviews to learn more about schools for their children. That is why we are asking you to take a few minutes to visit our school profile on Yelp, Google or GreatSchools to share the wonderful experiences you have had with our school. Please let us know if you have any questions. Thank you!

GymSport’s unique program uses music and interactive play that addresses children’s emotional, cognitive and social needs for all ages. Our program can help to enhance learning and development for both children with and without special needs.
Wednesday Morning: Bach2Rock
- Learning to play music should be fun. It’s called ‘play’ for a reason.
- Students feel motivated by playing with their peers.
- A student’s individual music instruction should be supplemented by jam sessions and playing in a band.
- Like a sports team, a band builds teamwork, develops social skills, fosters self-esteem, promotes peer recognition, and leads to lasting friendships.
- Students learn faster playing music they like, whether it’s Rock or Bach. And the technical foundation is the same.
- Students are motivated to learn when they see early results and have an exciting, achievable goal.
- Introducing toddlers and very young children to music instruction, rhythm, and motion supports cognitive development, learning, and motor skills.
Thursday Morning: Soccer Shots is a popular non-competitive youth soccer program. This program teaches confidence, fun, character, teamwork, coordination and imagination.
Friday Morning: Tumblebus
Cheerfully decorated, Tumblebus provides a unique and fun way for children to receive the physical fitness that is so important to their development.
Instructors “with a special heart toward children” make the experience memorable as well as educational. Tumblebus programs builds self-esteem in children as they accomplish each physical skill in the lesson plan.
Friday Afternoon: Tennis Time is EXCITING Mobile Classes designed for young kids ages 3-10. All classes are brought direct to daycare and elementary schools and taught by our top notch certified coaches. Coaches use the latest in age appropriate KIDS equipment & technology with special low compression balls, rackets and mini-nets, clubs, pitching nets and is ideal for indoors or outdoors.
