March News Letter

Rumor has it spring is coming, but the current weather begs to differ.   We continue to bundle up on the rare occasions we venture out, but hopefully that will soon end so that we can make the world our classroom again. 

The end of February saw us participate in the secondary school’s celebration of Black History month.   We performed Man in the Mirror again, along with our P.A.L.S. while a tribute power point presentation to Nelson Mandela, that Keyshawn helped me create, played over our heads.  Well done one and allJ.   We keep this up and we are going to get signed by Motown soon.

*As the school year goes on our school supplies are getting low.   Please send in new pencils, pens and erasers to replenish each student’s individual pencil case.
