This Sunday, March 13th marks the start of Daylight Savings Time. Please remember to “Spring Forward” and set your clocks ahead one hour!

Also, we are starting to see warmer weather at last! Now, we are in Minnesota, so you never know what the weather will throw at us. But, as we get closer and closer to Spring, the children will need to trade their snow boots in for outside shoes. These need to be closed-toed shoes that they can wear outside in the sand. An old pair of tennis shoes work great for this. We prefer that they have a different pair of shoes from what they normally wear to school for outdoor play. And please label them!

Lastly, please check the lost and found bin for any unlabeled, unclaimed winter gear!
