There Goes Book Week!

Another successful Book Week has been put to rest. Big thanks to all of the wonderful authors and illustrators who visited us, to the amazing Literary Committee for putting everything in place, and to the parent volunteers who made everything run so smoothly. Our students are so lucky to be able to participate in such a rich and dynamic week every year.
