It's time for butterflies! 🦋 Thanks to our spirit nights, we were able to purchase a butterfly kit with live caterpillars for each of our 18 classrooms. In approximately 3 weeks, we will have beautiful butterflies to release!

Happy Easter!

He is risen! He is risen indeed! Alleluia! #Easter #Jesus #Resurrection

We wish you many blessings on this Palm Sunday!
