Pre-K has had a busy winter!! We started winter by going on a gingerbread hunt for our letters through our school! That silly Gingy hid our letters and our class worked together to put the alphabet back together. We then celebrated holidays around the world, and filling our class bucket by having hot cocoa family style! Then, we celebrated the 100th day of school with some fun activities like building a cup wall and a necklace with 100 fruit loops! We had a friend get dropped off by a fire truck! That was exciting! We learned about solutions and mixtures by making flavored waters and a trail mix! We have been outside any chance we can, but it has been cold, so we are making the best of it! We are rested after February break and ready to finish our Pre-K year strong!!!
PreK Registration is happening now!

Boys A Basketball played their last game of the season at Wagner last night! Although falling short, our boys held their heads high and played a good game. They came back in the second half to hold off the opposing team with points; through smart game play and ball movement. They worked together as a team to defend a tough offensive team. Baskets by: Simon K., Derrick C., Landon M., Hunter H and Damon S. Way to go Wildcats this season! Your school and coaches are proud of your hard work and dedication to a sport that you love to play!
The girls' A team ended their basketball season last night with a home game against Wagner. Even though the results were not what we wanted, the girls should all be proud of themselves. They have made some great improvements since October. Last night's points were made by Calli, Paisley, Kylie, Maddie, and Ava.
