Merry Christmas!

Greetings,
I just wanted to take a minute to wish each of you a very Merry Christmas!  I hope 2013 has been good to your family, and may 2014 be even better.  Thank you for the opportunity to work with your child.  Through my role as an educator, I am fortunate enough to meet so many wonderful people and families and gain friendships along the way!  

May your holiday season be filled with laughter, love, family and friends.

See you in the new year,
Ms. Brittany

Cookie Decorating Families Being Involved Workshop

On December 6th, we held our third Families Being Involved workshop in the MAES cafeteria.  In order to help get in the holiday spirit, families were invited to decorate Christmas Cookies!  Many colors of frosting and lots of sprinkles were available for Pre-K students and families to use.   A special "thanks" goes out to Ms. Patty in the kitchen for preparing the cut out cookies.  Also, thanks to those families who were able to attend.  

Lexi and Aunt Gwen decorate with blue frosting!

Brody enjoys his time decorating cookies!

Christian and his great grandma work together.

Cash decorated very nicely with pink frosting and brown sprinkles.

Cheyanne and Mom work together to decorate their cookies.
