SEPTEMBER 1 - WEEK 2: Complete

And just like that another week has flown by! It's been good to continue to "get into the school groove". I love watching this classroom of students become a classroom family. Their excitement for learning the Shema in the morning, spending 35 minutes silently reading, and listening to each child pray for the person next to them gets me excited for what this upcoming year holds for us. It was a GREAT second week!


Mrs. Troop taught us how to be a peacemarker at school and at home.

LUNCH HELPERS:
Many of you had an interest in helping during our Wednesday lunch time. Please use this link to sign up. I appreciate your volunteering SO MUCH!
