Happy Tuesday! Don't forget that dismissal is at 2:30 tomorrow!!

Today, the kids were excited (no, really....they were!) to receive the guideline packet for the Insect Collection Project. Right now, the focus should simply be on collecting insects. Later this week I will do a lesson on pinning, so your child should have an insect in your freezer if they did last night's homework!

Lower School Open House is Thursday, we will begin in the church's Worship Center, then adjourn to the classrooms. Please make plans to have someone from your household visit the Ant Hill for important information about this school year!
