Please bring your child to school dressed as a chordate tomorrow (or nonchordate if they really, really want to be a butterfly 😉). We had a few fabulous costumes last year!

…and one day closer the the Chordate Fashion Show 😊

We hope you are having an amazing day! I was able to catch some photos of our circle times today.

Hello Parents!

May is quickly approaching. That means we’ll soon celebrate graduation and our composers!

It also means that we will need parent volunteers for Profession Days! Please help us learn about different professions with a small talk and activity (10-15 minutes total). If you would like to come speak, but are not sure what relevant activity could tie in with your profession, please email me and we’ll figure something out!

We can make time for you to come visit whenever you are available!

Thank you so much, Parents!

My children love this lyrical introduction to the solar system. Since we’re learning about the planets these last months of the school year, I hope you and your child enjoy it too 😊

The Planets Rap

In case you’re interested in listening to real radio emissions from the planets visit the NASA website. The results are little more creepy and less melodic–especially Saturn!

Nominate a teacher here and let us know so we can all vote!

Help start the week with a relaxed attitude! The children are invited to wear their pajamas to school on Monday for International Pajama Day.

Parents, you are awesome!

I received this email from Stephanie Cate Lord, the executive director of the Batonga Foundation, today:
