Our first monthly Family Night was a success! Our September Family Night focused on early literacy skills and provided families with fun, engaging activities and takeaways they could use at home to support reading development. We were excited to welcome approximately 50 students and family members as we partnered with families to strengthen literacy beyond the classroom.
We can't wait to see you all for our next Family Night on Friday, October 16th. The theme is Fall Festival, followed by a Trunk or Treat.
