Thank you for helping us to maintain a peanut-free environment.

Donations

We always welcome donations of any sort to our program.  Materials for arts and crafts, cleaning supplies, and volunteer hours are very much appreciated!

Parent Involvement

Parents are always encouraged to come and spend time with their children.  Take a few minutes to connect with your child before leaving.  You are welcome to join them on the playground, in their classroom, in the library or anywhere you feel comfortable.  It’s a special treat when you join them for lunch.  We will often need volunteers to assist with special events and accompany the older children on their field trips to the beach.  If you would like to join us on these outings, please speak with your child’s teacher or Rita as they come up.
