Good morning preschool families, past and present! 💜

Some of you may know that our beloved Mrs. Gray is retiring at the end of this school year after many, many years of wonderful service to our students and in doing so, our community. 🥹

As I have done when Mrs. Bruce and Mrs. Lohr retired, I will be creating a very special photo book for Mrs. Gray to cherish filled with memories of her years at our preschool.

Please send in any photos of your children at preschool and/or special words that you would like to share to be included in Mrs. Gray’s photo book!

Please email anything you like to share to….

We are focusing a lot this month on what we are thankful for! We learned the word cornucopia, otherwise known as a “horn of plenty”. Inside our cornucopia we drew things that we are thankful for. 🥰

We are loving turkey stew this week! 🦃

We made thankful turkeys with each feather saying something that we are thankful for! 🤩
