ONGOING HAPPENINGS:
We kicked off our One School, One Book event and will be reading Fenway and Hattie throughout the month!

Ms. Farda has been visiting bi-weekly for our continued Social-Emotional Learning lessons.  The students especially enjoy when Ms. Farda incorporates music and her singing bowl into the lessons.

We are excited to learn about Dr. Seuss, celebrate St. Patrick’s Day and for the coming of Spring.
