The world is full of wonder! Preschool 3-year-olds learned all about wonder this week followed by some exploration to deepen their understanding! The students found spider webs, spiders, ant hills, ant galleries in the tree bark and much more! It was a successful exploration!

We've had a great first month of PreSchool!

Our preschoolers are doing a fantastic job learning all our school routines!

We're also excited to announce that we're using a new curriculum this year called FrogStreet! Our teachers are doing a great job implementing it, with help from Fernando and Fanny the frogs. 🐸

Plus, we're thrilled to have our Forest Friday trips to Doane back! We are so thankful for this collaboration and for the chance to connect with nature every week. 🌳
