Get Ready for a “Bee-utiful” Year in Kindergarten!

Family Fitness Night is THIS Tuesday (29th) 6-7pm! There will be rotations of 3 activities and a very light healthy snack served! It is truly one of my favorite events we do! I can’t wait to see you! THE ENTIRE SCHOOL IS WEARING WORKOUT ATTIRE (SWEATPANTS, TENNIS SHOES, ETC..) TOMORROW! We will be warming up with a few exercises throughout the day, but I can’t wait to see all my kiddos at the event tomorrow evening!
AS OF RIGHT NOW, the 100th day of school will be on Friday! We will have a special 100th day snack, count to 100 in several different ways, and celebrate being 100 days smarter!
THERE IS A CHANCE that school might be cancelled due to the cold! It has been done before but I am unsure of the exact temps when this happened. The kids and I talked about how this was a possibility, but I am clearly not in charge of that decision and those people will make that decision closer to time, keeping in mind everyone’s safety! Please make sure you are signed up for text alerts, or listen to the news stations for possible closing!
