Christmas Musical
December 10, 6:30-7:30 p.m.

Christmas Program
December 12 - 9:00 - 10:00 a.m.

It's no secret that this is one of our cutest events! Come celebrate Christmas with our three year old classes as they preform their musical entitled 'Happy Birthday, Jesus!' The performance will be in the auditorium, and we invite parents and their guests to enjoy hot chocolate and treats after the performance.  

We hope your family will participate in our community care outreach for Christmas. Project KARE is a program that gives back to children in Stark County Children's Services system who need practical gifts like school supplies, clothing and small toys.
Teachers have information on what is being collected for your particular room!  

We will be collecting donations December 3-7. 


Recommended Holiday Reading

The Sparkle Box , a book by Jill Hardie, is a heartwarming story  about a boy named Sam who discovers a mysterious sparkly box in his home. His parents tell him it's a special gift called a Sparkle Box that they will open together later, but they need to fill it first. When Sam finally opens The Sparkle Box on Christmas morning, he finds something he never expected!
