We had such an exciting October and so far very busy November to start off our Holiday Season! During this month, we have focused on giving back. First, we participated in Operation Gratitude with Chesterbrook Academy Elementary School from November 1st until the 8th. We collected candy during these dates that our Pre K 2 students took to our elementary school to prepare to send to our troops. Second, we have been collecting items for our food drive for a local charity, Loudoun Interfaith, that started on the first and ends the 18th.
During this month, we have also been focusing our families and what Thanksgiving means. Among other literary topics, our students have learned about the holiday and what it means to be thankful. On November 15th, we had our annual Thanksgiving Dinner and we hope that everyone enjoyed it! We will also have our “What Am I Thankful For” Art Display outside each of our classrooms starting today, November 17th.
As always, we look forward to an exciting month and please see either myself or Ms. Diana should you have any questions.
