Peterson's Message- K3 Director
Greetings MCP3 Team!
Thank you for opening your classrooms to our DSHA volunteers over the past two weeks! Your support, inclusivity, and welcoming nature made this a positive and valuable experience for them. I will be sure to share with you their reflections once they have completed the reflection form. As always, if there is feedback for me on how we can make this experience for them and for us- please feel free to email me or set up a time to discuss.
We have a full week ahead full of joy, learning, and growing together!
Here are some important happenings and reminders:
