Holi is the Indian festival of colors, celebrated during spring when new colors appear in nature. It symbolizes inclusiveness, new beginnings, and the triumph of good over evil. It's a time to celebrate happiness, friendship, and the arrival of spring.

Thank you to Mrs. Manzo and Mrs. Neal for organizing our Holi District Festival last Friday!

Each Friday, students who have perfect attendance and no tardies for the week are given a ticket to enter a drawing. Three tickets for grades k, 1 and 2 and three tickets for grades 3, 4 and 5 will be drawn on the last school day of the month.

This month each student who wins will receive a great prize!

Good luck, students!!

Best Parenting Skill #7

Be Patient

We can never expect our children or ourselves to change immediately. Behavior change takes time and good parenting skills, and good behavior are learned gradually. So please be patient.
