As we head into April and look forward to all the fun planned for this year’s Spring Event (don’t forget to grab your tickets below!), we’ll also continue emphasizing the importance of giving in our classrooms. Change for Change helps children understand how small actions can make a big impact. Beginning April 1st, your children may bring loose change to school. Students will place change into jars assigned to each class. After a brief exploration of causes that matter in our community, students will vote to decide where their class’s collected funds will go. Thank you for helping us inspire generosity and community-minded thinking in our students.

We hope you all enjoy some time to rest and rejuvenate during your Spring Break!

Warmly,

Susan
