| Mrs. Guinan - Room 01 |
We've been in school for two weeks and the students are adjusting well to the new schedule and routines. For some, the tears have lingered a little longer than for others!
It was great to see so many parents on Curriculum Night. Please feel free to contact me if you have any additional questions about our kindergarten curriculum.
A big thank you to the overwhelming number of you who offered to provide donations for our class or those who offered to help with various activities throughout the year. We're off to a great start!
