The Pre-K class visited the library this week. We read "How to Catch a Gingerbread Man" and "The Gingerbread Baby". Afterwards, we chased the Gingerbread Man on the smartboard!

Kindergarteners celebrated the holidays with a book exchange gathering. Our 4th grade book buddies read our new books to us as an extra special treat. We wish you all a happy holiday season!
