🍂 Miss Emily's Preschool class made the most of last Friday’s beautiful weather with a fun fall adventure! The students went on a leaf hunt around campus, learning about the differences in each tree while collecting colorful fall treasures. Of course, no day would be complete without a few rolls down Bulldog Hill! 🍁🐾

Our preschoolers baked up kindness this week! 🎃 They made delicious pumpkin bread and muffins to share with the special people in our school and community who help us every day. The children who chose to help did all the measuring, mixing, and pouring themselves — even cracking some big double-yolk eggs! 👩‍🍳🧁 We’re so proud of their giving hearts and helping hands! 💛

This morning, our preschoolers had a special visit from the ambulance crew, fire department, and police officers! 🚒🚑👮‍♀️
We learned all about safety and how to be kind and helpful in our community. 💕 We are so thankful for our First Responders!!

🎃🧙‍♀️ Preschool fun is in full swing! Today we carved pumpkins and made some magical witches’ brew! Students loved feeling and smelling the pumpkin guts (and planting the seeds to grow more pumpkins 🌱) and exploring funnels, measuring cups, and droppers with their brew. Learning, laughing, and building those fine motor skills all at once! ✨🧙

🚒✨ Our 4-year-old Pre-K kiddos had a blast at firefighter stations today! They learned fire safety, practiced creativity, and built trust in firefighters to feel safe at school or home. 👩‍🚒👨‍🚒

🧁 Miss Cindy's morning preschool class had a fun and tasty time making apple muffins with Grandma Lea today! 🍎👵

The apples were generously shared by Klayton Heyle from our afternoon class — thank you, Klayton! 🙌

Our little bakers measured, stirred, and filled the muffin tins all by themselves. We’ve even shared the recipe so these yummy muffins can be made at home too! 🧑‍🍳🍏

A big thank you to Grandma Lea for spending the morning with us and making it extra special! ❤️
