In kindergarten, the outdoors is more than a place to play. It is a place to explore, wonder, experiment, create and discover! Remember some of the most meaningful learning happens when we give children the time and freedom to simply be children! Happy Monday! #RamCulture

Thank you to the WHFD! Firefighters taught our youngest Rams how to be prepared during a fire. They even practiced how to "stop, drop and roll!" Thanks again for your service!

Chestnut kindergartners are using their "thinking poses" to master sight words and reading signs from our neighborhood. Ask them later to read to you. Remember, reading is everywhere!
