  Kindergarten Connection Your child's week with Mrs. DeLapa                               Last Week We had such fun singing before our Thanksgiving Feast. The feast was delicious too and we even had ice cream for dessert! A big thank you goes out to all the volunteers who came to serve us. We felt very loved and cared for ❤. It has been so fun seeing our classmates disguised turkeys and time lines. Things like these help us to get to know each other more and more.

Kindergarten Connection Your child's week with Mrs. DeLapa                               Last Week Our 50th day was a great celebration of all we have learned about math and reading, but also about each other.

  Kindergarten Connection Your child's week with Mrs. DeLapa                               Last Week I so enjoyed our time together during conferences last week. This was our first year including the students and I thought it was great! I think the kinders felt heard and appreciated being able to tell their stories some. I am always available if you would like to meet to discuss your child's school experience. Please don't hesitate to reach out with concerns or questions.  Now that the weather is somewhere between fall and winter, please be sure your child has adequate outdoor clothing each day.
