A Note from Our Principal
As October begins, I’d like to take a moment to appreciate the season’s transition and the exciting opportunities it brings for our students. Autumn provides an ideal setting for learning, with so many changes occurring outdoors and the chance to incorporate new, natural elements into our artwork and learning centers. This month, we have a range of exciting events lined up such as [Insert school-specific information- pumpkin decorating, costume parade, etc]. As always, thank you for entrusting us with your child’s education. We’re eager for a season of growth, discovery, and fun.
Sincerely,
Sarah Mentis
