Now this week will be an even larger showing of our community with Charlie Brown Thanksgiving (CBT). Please see the details below and if you can sign up for one of our desserts on the signup genius. This is one of the biggest highlights of our event and really the only time we ask for sweets on campus 🙂 https://www.signupgenius.com/go/20f0945a8ae2fa3fb6-charlie

Staff Shoutout Highlights for the week:

 

Ms. Calvey- Montessori First Grade- Mrs. Calvey is amazing! Her detailed thoughtfulness is incredible!!! In every single email she sends me, she always makes it a point to let me know details on how my child is doing (without me even asking!) She goes above and beyond always. It is so comforting knowing my child is in her hands.

 

Mr. Laramie- Middle School Special Education Teacher- Mr. Laramie always goes above and beyond! His passion for helping children is apparent in all that he does and I want him to know how truly appreciated he really is!
