Each class will have individual plans for Valentine's Day celebrations.  Please see your child's teacher for additional information.  Some classes have information outside of the classroom on the sign in desks, some teachers have included information in their newsletters.
Registration is open for the 2018-2019 School Year! If you would like to reserve a spot, please complete the "Intention to Return" form.  Reserved spots will only be held until 3/2/18.  On 3/3/18, any reserved spots for students who have not submitted the Registration Form and $100 non-refundable registration fee will be released and open to new registrations.  We expect a couple of our classes to fill up early.  If you do not submit registration requirements prior to 3/3/18 you can still register but you are not guaranteed a spot in your preferred class.
