SAVE THE DATE: End of the year picnic!!

Visit from Breezy the horse!

Yesterday and today, we got to enjoy a visit from Ms. Heather and her horse, Breezy!  Ms. Heather talked to us about how to care for a horse, how horses see on their sides better than straight in front and how to approach and pet someone's horse!  The kids even got to pet Breezy after Ms. Heather made sure everyone know how to keep themselves and Breezy safe!

What a wonderful hands-on experience for all of us!  

  

THANK YOU!!! THANK YOU!!!! THANK YOU!!!!!

5:30-7:30 pm
Every year, CDC puts on an amazing art show as the biggest fundraiser of the year.  It's a wonderful night of family time, open house for the classrooms and every child in the school has a masterpiece displayed!
This year we've added a silent auction to the evening in hopes of raising even more funds for our school to improve our playground and outdoor learning spaces!

We have an wonderful group of parents helping to plan and execute the event, but we want to make sure each of them has the opportunity to enjoy the evening with their family!

If you or anyone you know are available to help out with the evening, please click HERE to sign up!  We are asking for help serving food (pizza and carrot sticks), watching over the auction items, standing at the donation table, etc.  

This is a great opportunity for

 youth to get service hours!!

Thank you in advance for your support!

Good Bug/ Bad Bug Presentation

Yesterday and today, our kiddos enjoyed a Good Bug/ Bad Bug Presentation put on by Chris, the bug guy!

Chris talked all about where bugs can be found, the different parts of bugs and even had some preserved bugs for the kids to check out!  

Be sure and ask your kiddos about it!  Maybe you can go on a bug hunt while we are out for spring break next week!
