Dear Parents,
We hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving! With about 6 weeks remaining, we wanted to share with you once again what a privilege it is to be working with your children. It’s hard to believe we are over halfway finished! Your children are so precious and it is a pleasure watching them grow and learn every Sunday. Again, let us touch base with you about a few things that we need to take care of to ensure the best possible experience.
– Garland & Courtney
