Pre-K - Natural Ornaments
K- Honoring Paramedics
1st- Snowmen
2nd - Old Fashioned Christmas
3rd - The Giving Tree
4th - Maine Chickadee
5th - "If 2020 was a Christmas Tree"
Mrs. Lawlor's Room - Nature
We would like to thank the Forestry Program, Rob, and Todd for helping with this project.
If you see one of these beautifully painted rocks around our community, please re-hide it so others can join the fun! Our talented, grades 3-5, ASP kids did these and want to see if they can travel around! Let us know if you come across one!
Sorry for the last minute change, but there is NO After School Program today. 12/17/20
Please be prepared for your child to come home on the bus or be picked up at school.
Thank you!
