We celebrated Farm To Table today with our apple crunch gathering in the big gym, and then many parents and loved ones joined us for lunch where we had local farmers help serve everyone. Thanks to everyone involved!
Children are naturally driven to explore the world around them. Our preschool program fosters curiosity by allowing our students to connect with the environment using all of their senses. Through play, our little learners are building skills in cognitive, emotional, social and physical development.
