Thank you to everyone who poured their heart and soul into our Era Theme! All our Room Parents and volunteers make our staff feel so loved!
Every year @charlasplace3 (along with Kai) outdoes herself with her TOTALLY RADICAL themed-out cart, but this year might be our favorite. She was STACKED with @abesmuffins (egg, soy, nut, and dairy-free), cinnamon rolls, yogurt parfaits, orange juice, and coffee. Thank you for being STELLAR and making this year one of the best we have ever had! βœŒπŸΌπŸ•Ί

2022 Velveteen Rabbit Tea

Thank you to the amazing 3rd grade team behind the extraordinary Velveteen Rabbit Tea!
Every detail from the classic tea cup sets, the beautiful table scapes, the incredible assortment of mouth watering food, and of course, the Disney-like Photo Booth, made this unforgettable.
It’s another one for the books! Thank you, Room Moms & Parent Volunteers!
Don’t Forget to Share Your Wonderful Pictures for our Yearbook!

Thank You for All the Love You Give!

Those festive classroom doors that get you in the spirit of the season.. we have our wonderful Room Parents to thank! Every event turns into a class party — and how fancy they are!
Room Parents shower our teachers and children with all the love. We appreciate them so much! We also can’t thank enough all the parents who help out in the classroom. These special activities for the children are possible because you chose to volunteer!
Help your child’s class by supporting your Room Parents’ planned activities, teacher’s wish list, and by donating grade level supplies. We thank you all for your time, commitment, and generosity.
