Ravens Had a Field Day at Field Day!
 
Despite the downpours outside, students enjoyed a great time in the gym this morning at Field Day! They worked up a sweat in friendly competitions and everyone enjoyed a sweet treat after the action. Special thanks to Mrs. Machen for organizing and overseeing all the fun!
 
 
Down on the Farm
 
PreK-3 and PreK-4 enjoyed a wonderful field trip to Alstede Farms last week. They took a tractor ride to the green house to plant their own basil, chamomile, and cilantro to bring home! We also got to pet and feed some really cute farm animals!
