🍎 Fill the Teacher’s Lounge! ☕️

School is officially back in session. What a wonderful first couple of days it has been! We'd love to help keep our amazing teachers fueled throughout the school year!

Parents, we're inviting you to sign up to bring snacks and treats for the teachers' lounge. It's a simple way to show our teachers how much we appreciate all they do for our kids each day.

Whether it's a sweet treat, salty snack, fruit, or something to enjoy with their coffee, every donation is a little reminder that our teachers are supported and appreciated.

We know families have busy schedules and different circumstances - there is absolutely no pressure to donate! If you are able and would like to participate, we'd love to have you join in, but there is never any obligation.

Items can be dropped off at the Ice Cream Social on Sunday - or on Monday and Tuesday morning to the office.

Thank you to all parents, always!

(please note: individually wrapped "quick snacks" are best for our busy teachers throughout the day).

’Twas the night before school, and all through the house,
Backpacks were ready, as quiet as a mouse.
The shoes were lined up, the lunchboxes too,
With prayers sent to Him for all that we’ll do.

A prayer for tonight for the school year ahead -
