Friday News and Merry Christmas!!!

THANK YOU to all the moms and dads who made the DELICIOUS food for our lunch today! The students had a good time and I had a good time - it was over all a VERY FUN time!! Thank you to the moms who helped serve and help with the crafts and games. 

Christmas is only 7 day away! Are you excited? I am excited to spend some time with family.
