March 2016

Hello,
Just like THAT, March is here!  Hopefully the weather will begin warming up and spring will be on its way!  We can hope, right?  :)  Below you will find more information about our March themes and other events that will be taking place.  Please remember that even though the temps may warm up, our playground is still covered in snow.  This means winter clothes are necessary for recess.  Please continue to send winter clothing until you hear otherwise.  Thanks!!
