Happy Fall Break Week :) I can't believe it's already week 10! I have to say, it's been super busy, but more importantly, it has been so wonderful getting to know each of your precious students. It has been an absolute joy being with them every week! This week we talked about animals that live in trees!

The kids have been LOVING hammering golf tees into pumpkins! If your child is struggling with fine motor movements, this is an excellent way to help them! A Little Head's Up: Please hold on to your child's walk-a-thon shirts! We will use them again in the spring for our end of the year performance! These are the purple shirts that say Living Testimony :) Thank you! Words From Rose Park: A Note from our Parent Team  A note from our amazingly supportive parent team.
