Helping Reluctant Readers

The development of good reading skills in early childhood is the best predictor of future academic and financial success. The earlier kids learn to read, the better. The challenge is, not to teach kids to read, but to create an environment where kids will learn to love reading.

Spring Portraits

On April 4, students will have the opportunity to wear their finest spring outfits and have their Spring Portrait taken. Only those purchasing packets will be photographed and allowed to wear spring attire, so sign up today!
