Esten Early Childhood Center

Thursday, February 5th: No Preschool/Early Release Day for Kindergarten at 12:00 PM

Monday, February 16-Friday, February 20th: No School-February Vacation Week

Our kindergarten students have been practicing several songs with their music teachers, Mrs. Panos and Mr. Popadic, preparing for their winter concert.

Group 1: Kennedy, Griffith & Haight
Group 2: Mullen, Scanlon & Mallar
Group 3: Dinger, Hogan & McDonnell

Please note the change of plans---
Due to the lack of available parking because of the snow, we will film each group's performance and share a link with families to be able to have a "viewing party" at home and also have a keepsake of the concert!
