Week of April 18, 2021

Happy Grandparents' Day!

It has been said that a grandparent is a little bit parent, a little bit teacher, and a little bit best friend. On Friday, our first and second graders were excited to show their love and appreciation for their grandparents via our joyful virtual Grandparents' Day program.

Magic Dragon Day

We all look forward each year to Magic Dragon Day, one of the School’s oldest and most treasured traditions. Though our celebration this year will look different from years past in respect of COVID-19 social distancing and group guidelines, we are hopeful your children and family will enjoy the daily Blue and White activities planned throughout the week of April 26-30.

The highlight of the week’s events will be an all-school picnic on Friday, April 30, and the Maypole dances by the kindergarten and first grade that day. Details on the week’s activities will be shared with all early this week.

An important letter was sent to kindergarten and first grade parents on Thursday regarding details on the Maypole dances.
