THANK YOU for your generosity and kindness. Our break room is full of snacks and drinks thanks to all of you. It goes a long way and we are grateful.

I am sending along this Smore with holiday specific information - I hope you find it helpful.

Stay safe and dry,

Julie

Special Events on Friday 12/13 and Tuesday 12/17 Special Events on Friday 12/13 and Tuesday 12/17

On Friday, 12/13 we will have a special visitor: Mrs Claus! (also known as our SLP Baileigh Savini's mom, Donna). She will visit the classrooms, sing a song, tell a story and take some pictures. We are excited for this visit.

*A special note for students in Jess Pyrcz's class. Since that is an early release day and the afternoon class comes in the morning, we invite students in the MORNING class to come to DFP at 10:40 so they can meet her. Parents of students in the morning class, please stay nearby as your children will be dismissed at 11 am.

On Tuesday 12/17 we host musical guest (and parent) Mr. Moyes who will sing some holiday songs with our students here at DFP. This will be a fun and engaging event for all!
