Tulip Test Garden

The tulip bulbs Children's House planted in the fall are sprouting! We are participating in the Tulip Test Garden, you can see Crossroads on the map- Tulip Test Garden. Dr. Fraley's class planted tulips last school year (22-23) and those emerged about 2 weeks earlier. If you want to track the tulips' growth with your class, go take a look, they are planted around the peace pole at the front of the school.

Morning Drop Off ~ Building Independent Learners

At this time of the school year, we request families to say "goodbye" to their children at the front doors. Teachers and staff have a lot on their plate at the beginning of the day, since students eat in the classrooms. Saying "goodbye" to your child at the front door will help build independent learners. Most students now know their way around the school and we have plenty of grownups in the building to help those that might be sad or need extra support. We promise, your child will get to class and not get lost. Thank you for your help and understanding.
